An incensed Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin today called Ampang MP Zuraida Kamaruddin "biadap" (insolent) after a group of protesters descended on his house in Ampang this morning to protest against his sexist remarks.

In wanting to refer Zuraida to the parliament's rights and privileges committee, Bung Moktar, who is Barisan Nasional's Kinabatangan MP, said he took offence to the conduct of the protesters who had threatened the safety of his family.

He said whatever differences between them, it should be resolved within the Dewan Rakyat chambers instead of going to his residence.

"A group of women was sent by the Ampang MP to tresspass into my house with banners. They were making wild allegations and shouting 'reformasi'.

"This is a threat that affects my family. This is a rude action by the Ampang MP.

"They were lucky I was not there, if I was, there may have been deaths. Don't challenge me," a visibly upset Bung Moktar said in the Dewan Rakyat today.

He had interrupted Rafizi Ramli (PKR-Pandan) who was halfway through his debate on the  Development Financial Institutions (Amendment) Bill 2015.

A group of about 60 people this morning protested against Bung Moktar outside Parliament before making their way to his house in Ampang.

They were upset with the four-term MP for insinuating that the husband of Zuraida would fear her aggressive behaviour during a parliamentary debate on June 9.
