Cops obtain warrant of arrest against Ahmad Ramzi

KUALA TERENGGANU: Terengganu police have obtained a warrant of arrest against the former political secretary of ex-mentri besar Datuk Seri Idris Jusoh after he failed to show up and assist in investigations.

Datuk Dr Ahmad Ramzi Mohamad Zubir had been given three days last Friday to come forward to facilitate the probe into an SMS death threat sent to three Barisan Nasional assemblymen on April 14.

He was the Barisan candidate for the Marang parliamentary constituency in last year’s general election, losing to PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang.

State deputy police chief Senior Asst Comm II Hamzah Mohd Jamil said that police were keen to record Dr Ahmad Ramzi’s statement on the SMS.

He said police had visited Dr Ahmad Ramzi’s homes in Kuala Lumpur and here but were unable to locate him.

The SMS received by the three assemblymen – Datuk Rosol Wahid (Ajil), Abdul Halim Jusoh (Permaisuri) and Zakaria Abdullah (Paka) – caused a furore when they and seven other representatives stayed away from the second day of the state legislative assembly proceedings on April 16.
