COMMENT | The assault on MP, former minister and past PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli’s son, stabbed with a syringe, and the accompanying threat is a shocking assault on public confidence, begging for an appropriate response from the police.

At a press conference in Parliament today, Rafizi revealed a threat made to his wife: “The message read: ‘Diam! Andai teruskan, AIDS!’ (Shut up! If you continue, AIDS!). The message had three syringe emojis.” Watch the video of the press conference here.
