KUALA LUMPUR: Police have arrested a man suspected of hurling stones until a glass panel at PAS' headquarters in Jalan Raja Laut here was shattered on Saturday (July 29).
According to a source, the 36-year-old unemployed man was arrested at Lorong Tiong Nam, Chow Kit, here at 10pm Sunday (July 31).
He said the results of the initial interrogation found that the man did so because he was not satisfied with PAS' stance in terms of political cooperation.
"The results of the initial investigation also found that the suspect has a criminal record with 16 past offences, including nine for drugs," the source told Bernama on Monday.
According to him, the man will be remanded for further investigation under Section 427 of the Penal Code for vandalism.
On Saturday, PAS lodged a police report after a man threw stones at the glass wall at PAS' headquarters, a few hours before the start of the nomination process for elections in six states. - Bernama
