Nevertheless, Tengku Zulpuri said he will not be reporting Adnan to the Rights and Privileges Committee as he thought the incident was “petty” and was not too shaken by it.

“For now I will not take any action because to me it was a petty thing. I did not feel afraid (during the incident), I was relaxed about it.
