"3 arrested for insulting former Malaysian king on social media
KUALA LUMPUR: Two men and one woman have been arrested for allegedly insulting former Malaysian king Sultan Muhammad V in relation to his recent abdication, Inspector-General of Royal Malaysia Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun said on Wednesday (Jan 9).
He said the men were aged 46 and 27, and the woman, 26. They were arrested on Tuesday.
Last Sunday, Sultan Muhammad V stepped down as Malaysia's king, confirming rumours that were circulating online during the week.
"The arrests were made after we received a number of reports regarding users of social media accounts posting comments containing insults toward Sultan Muhammad V," the police chief said in the statement.
"Those who were arrested are the owners of two Twitter accounts (@azhamakhtar and @aliaastaman) and the owner of a Facebook account with the name Eric Liew," he added.
The two Twitter accounts and the original Facebook post by Eric Liew appeared to have been taken down as of Wednesday afternoon, though screenshots of the alleged insults continued to be widely shared.
Liew's employer Cisco ASEAN announced that he had left the company, in a Facebook post uploaded just after midnight on Tuesday morning."
Not sure what had been written n shared by these 3 individuals.
Insulting anyone, royalties or not, is discouraged for sure as a civilised society can make each other's point heard without resorting to rude language!!
In this day n age, I m always very intrigued to read of royalties' misbehaving in public n in their private life.
When a baby is born in any family, s/he is the most precious being to that family. Why should one be called a princess or prince while the other could well end up as an infant mortality rate statistics!
Will I abolish monarchy if we hv 1 in Sgp? u bet! Everyone should be equal in this day n age. Called me: naive n idealistic n unrealistic. It doesn't matter to me.
Peace to all human beings!!
