Police today recorded the statement from Selangor exco V Ganabatirau to assist in investigations into alleged racial statements following the chaos at the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman temple in Subang Jaya.
Three police officers, believed to be from the Selangor police headquarters, were seen entering the office of Ganabatirau at the state secretariat building in Shah Alam at 6.20pm.
They left about two hours later.
“I told them what I told the media. Nothing more, nothing less,” he said when met by reporters later.
On Nov 26, Ganabatirau uploaded a status on his Facebook account claiming that a group of Muslims were attacking the temple.
His statement was criticised by various parties, including Selangor PAS, who described his action as trying to stoke racial sentiments.
The Kota Kemuning assemblyperson later apologised for the remark at the Selangor State Assembly.
Police had earlier explained that the chaos at the temple in the early mornings of Monday and Tuesday last week had nothing to do with a racial dispute, but related to the issue of relocation of the temple from its original site in USJ25 to Putra Heights, which is about three kilometres away.
The case is being investigated under Section 504 of the Penal Code on intentional insults with intent to provoke a breach of the peace.
The section is punishable with a maximum two-year jail sentence, a fine, or both upon conviction.
