Eight opposition MPs have been called up to give their statements tomorrow and on Thursday at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters over their attempt to enter Parliament on Monday.
Lembah Pantai MP Fahmi Fadzil had earlier tweeted that he was among the MPs called to give their statements to the police tomorrow at 11am.
He later told Malaysiakini that the other MPs involved tomorrow are Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh, Simpang Renggam MP Maszlee Malik, Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh, Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman, Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng and Damansara MP Tony Pua.
Their appointments tomorrow are tentatively staggered from 10am to 2.30pm.
Meanwhile, Batu Kawan MP Kasthuri Patto is tentatively scheduled to go to the same police headquarters to have her statement taken on Thursday at 10am.
However, Fahmi noted that Fuziah may have to postpone as she is back in her constituency.
Police yesterday sealed off entrances to the Parliament, blocking MPs from entering the august House.
The police later claimed they had no problems with MPs going to Parliament but said they were trying to stop an "illegal" gathering there.
Pakatan Harapan has since said they regret the police were used to obstruct MPs, pointing out that blocking MPs from their duties is a crime under Section 124 of the Penal Code, which provides for up to seven years of imprisonment and a fine. - Mkini
