NewzSekretariat Taat Setia Sokongan Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan berkata exco dan Adun negeri tiada bidang kuasa membuat keputusan mengenai penurunan takhta Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir sebagai pemerintah. (Gambar Bernama)PETALING JAYA: Satu himpunan akan diadakan malam ini bagi menunjukkan sokongan kepada Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir susulan polemik kedudukan baginda sebagai Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan.Pengerusi Sekretariat Taat Setia Sokongan Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan, Megat D Shahriman Zaharudin, berkata himpunan itu akan diadakan di Tingkat 5, Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA), bermula 8.30 malam hingga 9.30 malam, sempena keberangkatan pulang Tuanku Muhriz.Beliau menyeru rakyat Negeri Sembilan yang mahu menunjukkan sokongan kepada Tuanku Muhriz supaya hadir pada himpunan itu, sambil menegaskan NGO berkenaan tidak mahu mendahului pihak istana berhubung butiran penerbangan baginda.Megat D Shahriman Zaharudin."Kita harus bersama-sama Tuanku Muhriz untuk menunjukkan yang kita tidak bersetuju dan tidak bersekongkol dengan pengkhianat."Jika benar dakwaan yang dikeluarkan kesemua ahli Majlis Mesyuarat Kerajaan Negeri (exco) Negeri Sembilan, memang mereka telah melakukan satu pengkhianatan," katanya kepada FMT.Perhimpunan dirancang itu diadakan di tengah-tengah pertikaian mengenai kedudukan Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan semakin memuncak.Mengulas kenyataan barisan exco Negeri Sembilan yang menyatakan penurunan takhta Tuanku Muhriz pada April lalu adalah sah, Megat menyifatkannya sebagai tindakan memalukan, termasuk mempersoal bidang kuasa exco menentukan kedudukan Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan.Katanya, exco dan Adun negeri tidak mempunyai bidang kuasa membuat keputusan mengenai penurunan takhta, sambil menyebut perkara itu tidak diperuntukkan dalam undang-undang tubuh negeri.“Mereka sepatutnya sedar diri dan melepaskan jawatan jika benar telah melakukan perkara sedemikian. Saya juga berpendapat mereka tidak layak mewakili mana-mana parti jika benar melakukan pengkhianatan,” katanya.Megat turut menyeru polis mengambil tindakan terhadap pihak yang didakwa bertanggungjawab dan tidak melengah-lengahkan siasatan, sekiranya terdapat kesalahan di sisi undang-undang.“Kita tidak mahu perkara ini menjadi normalisasi di negeri-negeri lain.
Saya berharap setiap istana dan Sultan di negeri yang mempunyai institusi beraja… Former menteri besar Aminuddin Harun said that under the Negeri Sembilan constitution, exco members have no power to make decisions on the position of the Yang Dipertuan Besar.PETALING JAYA: Former Negeri Sembilan menteri besar Aminuddin Harun has urged the authorities to take action against the state executive council members involved in issuing a statement affirming Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir’s removal as the Yang Dipertuan Besar.Aminuddin said the actions of the exco members in issuing the Sept 16 statement amounted to an act of treason against Tuanku Muhriz."I urge the authorities to take appropriate legal action against every exco member involved," he said in a statement.Aminuddin also said that under the constitution, exco members have no power to make decisions concerning the Yang Dipertuan Besar's position.The state executive council yesterday said that Tuanku Muhriz’s removal in April was legitimate and that Tuanku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar was therefore the new ruler of Negeri Sembilan.It said the council, chaired by menteri besar Ismail Lasim, convened on Tuesday and collectively decided that the April 19 proclamation for the removal of Tuanku Muhriz had been signed and sealed by the duly constituted and incumbent undangs.The council said that the proclamation was also signed by Ismail on Aug 3, rendering it complete in accordance with Article 10(2) of the Negeri Sembilan constitution. Ismail has disputed the validity of the document.Aminuddin pointed out Ismail's statement on Sept 9 that the state government had taken the position that the instrument he signed did not comply with the processes and procedures provided for under Article 10 of the Negeri Sembilan constitution."However, seven days later, the exco members decided that the proclamation was duly completed and had taken effect.
This change in position is difficult to understand," Aminuddin said.Aminuddin, who was still menteri besar on April 19, said a proclamation to remove Tuanku Muhriz was presented to him while he was in office. However, he reiterated that he refused to sign the document and explained his reasons publicly on April 20."I do not recognise the Sept 16 exco announcement. I affirm that Tuanku Muhriz is the Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan," he said.DAP’s Bahau assemblyman Teo Kok Seong said yesterday that the statement purportedly issued by members of the Neger…
