Police receive video of Anwar’s bodyguard allegedly pointing a gun

(Bernama) - Melaka police today received a video recording believed to be that of a bodyguard of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim threatening a member of the public with a gun.

It was surrendered to the Jasin Police Headquarters here at 6pm.

The four-minute video, belonging to a local cyber media officer, was recorded at a function organised by Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) in Kampung Baru Rim on Saturday.

The 29-year-old man, who was met at the IPD, said the recording was handed to police to help investigations related to the incident.

“This is because the action of pointing a gun at someone is a threat to the crowd at the scene of the incident,” he said.

Meanwhile, Melaka police chief Datuk Chuah Ghee Lye when contacted confirmed receiving the tape and said police would study the tape.

He said police might call the opposition leader to help in investigation on the case if necessary.

“Anwar was in the bus during the incident and it is not known if he had seen the incident. But it is up to the investigation officer to decide whether to call him or not,” he said.
