(Gambar Bernama)PETALING JAYA: Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja'afar dan empat individu yang mendakwa diri mereka sebagai undang Negeri Sembilan mempertikaikan pembatalan pelantikan 10 ahli Majlis Mesyuarat Kerajaan Negeri (exco) pada bulan lepas.Tunku Nadzaruddin menegaskan semula dakwaan beliau terhadap takhta, malam tadi, dengan mendakwa Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir bukan lagi Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan apabila pelantikan ahli-ahli exco berkenaan dibatalkan pada 20 Sept, maka tidak sah dan tidak berperlembagaan."Kami dengan ini mengurniakan limpah perkenan kepada Ismail Lasim selaku menteri besar dan barisan exco... untuk terus mengemudi pentadbiran kerajaan Negeri Sembilan," menurut kenyataan bersama dengan empat 'undang' berkenaan dan Tunku Besar Tampin.Mereka mendakwa Tuanku Muhriz bukan lagi Yang Dipertuan Besar apabila suatu proklamasi sebelum ini, oleh individu yang mendakwa diri mereka sebagai undang, diterima dan diputuskan untuk 'dilaksanakan' oleh exco.Negeri Sembilan tidak mempunyai barisan exco sejak 20 Sept lalu selepas 10 anggotanya dilucutkan jawatan kerana melanggar sumpah jawatan.Pemecatan itu dibuat susulan kenyataan mereka lima hari sebelumnya yang menyokong satu pengisytiharan untuk menurunkan Tuanku Muhriz sebagai Yang Dipertuan Besar.Mereka terdiri daripada wakil Umno, iaitu Mustapha Nagoor (Palong); Faizal Ramli (Linggi); Zaiful Bahri Idris (Chembong); Razi Ali (Sungai Lui); Asna Amin (Lenggeng); Siti Nur Umaira Hasim (Labu); dan Suhaimizan Bizar (Gemencheh).Tiga lagi terdiri daripada wakil MCA Siow Kong Choon (Chennah); Fairuz Isa daripada PAS (Serting); serta Razali Abu Samah (Sikamat) daripada Wawasan.Pembatalan pelantikan 10 exco berkenaan diwartakan pada 24 Sept.Sebelum ini, Dewan Undangan dan Keadilan Negeri Sembilan menegaskan keputusan exco berhubung penurunan takhta Tuanku Muhriz tidak mempunyai kesan undang-undang kerana perkara itu di luar bidang kuasa kerajaan negeri.Setiausaha Raja Norazli Raja Nordin berkata perkara berkaitan adat Melayu, termasuk pemilihan, pelantikan, peletakan dan pemecatan Yang Dipertuan Besar serta Undang, terletak dalam bidang kuasanya menurut Perkara XVI Undang-undang Tubuh Kerajaan Negeri Sembilan (UUTKNS).Mengenai proklamasi pula, Jabatan Peguam Negara …
Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, revoked the appointments of the 10 exco members in September after they issued a statement announcing his purported removal as ruler. (Bernama pic)PETALING JAYA: Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar and the four purported undangs of Negeri Sembilan have disputed the sacking of the 10 state executive council members last month.Tunku Nadzaruddin reiterated his claim to the throne tonight, claiming that Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir was no longer Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan when the appointments of the exco members were revoked on Sept 20."We stress that the revocation of the 10 exco members' appointments was invalid and unconstitutional as, at the time, Tuanku Muhriz was no longer Yang Dipertuan Besar."Therefore, menteri besar Ismail Lasim and his exco lineup may continue leading the Negeri Sembilan administration," he said in a joint statement with the four "undangs" and the Tunku Besar Tampin.They argued that Tuanku Muhriz was removed as ruler on Sept 15 following the state exco's decision to "execute" the proclamation previously made by the purported undangs.They added that the Conference of Rulers was informed about this by Ismail in a letter on Sept 21.Tunku Nadzaruddin was purportedly proclaimed as the “new” Yang Dipertuan Besar on June 5 by one of the undangs at a five-star hotel in Melaka.However, the federal government contends that Tuanku Muhriz remains the recognised Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan.In September, a month after being sworn in as menteri besar, Ismail claimed he was coerced into signing a proclamation seeking to remove Tuanku Muhriz, saying the document was invalid.Several days later, the Negeri Sembilan exco members issued a statement claiming that Tuanku Muhriz’s removal in April was legitimate, and that Tunku Nadzaruddin was, therefore, the new ruler.Ismail shifted from his initial stance and endorsed the exco's statement. However, the Attorney-General’s Chambers said the announcement had no legal effect while the state's Dewan Keadilan dan Undang affirmed Tuanku Muhriz as ruler.Tuanku Muhriz then revoked the appointments of the 10 exco members, who were barred by authorities from entering their offices.Last Friday, Tuanku Muhriz sternly admonished Ismail when they met at a mosque in Negeri Sembilan.
