MELAKA: Melaka exco member Datuk Norhizam Hassan Baktee has thanked Johor police for arresting a Rohingya refugee whom he claimed had ridiculed him on cyberspace.
Norhizam said the man, identifying himself as"Long Tiger" in his social media account, had poked fun at his stature and challenged him to a fight during an eight-minute video uploaded on YouTube in October 2018."He failed to get the truth of what actually transpired that led to an misunderstanding between villagers and me during the incident before uploading the video," Norhizam said on Thursday .
He was referring to a dialogue session he had with the villagers from Kampung Pulau Nibong here in October 2018. During the event, a heated argument occurred between him and the villagers over the then closure of two shortcuts connecting Jalan Pulau Nibong to Jalan Akasia 4 and Jalan Akasia 7 in Taman Akasia.Norhizam, who chairs the state agriculture, agro-based, entrepreneur development and cooperative committee, said the video uploaded by the Muar-based foreigner was widely circulated, earning him the moniker"YB Gangster".
On Thursday , the Johor police arrested a foreigner after he allegedly made a slanderous statement against a police officer from the Tangkak headquarters. Johor police chief Comm Datuk Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay said the 31-year-old suspect was detained on Tuesday and police were probing his alleged link to a triad group.
