Aminuddin Calls Exco Move Against Tuanku Muhriz an Act of Defiance
Aminuddin says the exco lacked authority and that 2 conflicting statements on the ruler’s removal must be clarified immediately.
- On Wednesday, former Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun joined lawmakers to challenge the state executive council's statement claiming the removal of Pertuan Besar Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir was legitimate.
- The exco's Wednesday declaration marked a sudden reversal from its Sept 9 stance, which deemed the April 19 proclamation invalid; Aminuddin called the shift "deeply baffling" given his previous rejection of the document.
- Aminuddin argued the process violated the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959, noting no "full and complete" investigation occurred as required by Article 10, while the Dewan Keadilan reaffirmed Tuanku Muhriz remains the sole ruler.
- Nilai assemblyman and opposition leader Arul Kumar and former state exco member Teo Kok Seong questioned the exco statement's official status, citing conflicting remarks from Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim.
- During the months-long dispute, Aminuddin urged the public to defend the Negeri Sembilan royal institution and reject leaders who betray the state constitution, emphasizing loyalty is owed only to the king and country.
