Phee is the state exco in charge of the unit and his arrest follows the detention of about 250 members of the unit earlier today.
He was arrested when he went to the Northeast police headquarters to give his statement at about 4.30pm accompanied by Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng and Seri Delima assemblyman RSN Rayer.
He had also warned, in a Twitter message, that the PPS leadership should turn themselves in if they did not wish to have their homes raided by police.
Phee spoke to The Malaysian Insider yesterday, saying that the unit's scope included quick response to emergencies and disasters, and does not include enforcement powers.
He said the PPS was formed to help with community policing following lukewarm response from the federal government to their requests to increase Rukun Tetangga and Rela Corps to heighten security in the state.
MORE TO COME.
