“In politics, I’m always open and I cherish the difference of opinions, but I’m confident that death threat has never been accepted as part of human rights in this country.
“Making a death threat like this is a serious crime. A death threat against a community leader who has spent years serving the people in the country is indeed worrying and cannot be left unaddressed without action,” he told reporters after lodging the report at Ipoh Police headquarters here.
