Police have recorded a statement from Pokok Sena MP Datuk Mahfuz Omar after reports were lodged against him for allegedly insulting the Sultan of Pahang, Sultan Ahmad Shah. The former PAS vice-president arrived at the state police headquarters at 10.15am, accompanied by a lawyer and his supporters. Kedah Criminal Investigations Department chief Senior Assistant Commissioner, Mior Farid Al Athrash Wahid said the state police were only assisting the probe conducted by their Pahang counterpart. Datuk Mahfuz's statement would be forwarded to Pahang for further action in connection with police reports lodged against the lawmaker for allegedly uttering insulting remarks against Sultan Ahmad Shah in a video recording. Meanwhile, Datuk Mahfuz said police had questioned him on matters concerning his remarks and the 106 police reports lodged against him so far. Yesterday, the Regent of Pahang, Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah expressed his disappointment over Mahfuz's alleged action of insulting the state ruler during a recent political talk. The video of Mahfuz talking about the ruler's state of health went viral last week, sparking a furore among the public.
