By BERNARD SEE

PENANG: The police here have completed their investigations into the alleged seditious remarks made by DAP chairman Karpal Singh against the Sultan of Perak.

George Town OCPD Asst Comm Azam Abd Hamid said the investigation papers were submitted to the Attorney-General’s chambers on Saturday.

He said the report was also based on the statement recorded from Karpal Singh on the same day.

"Two police reports were made against Karpal Singh, who is also Bukit Gelugor MP. One of the reports was made by state Umno Youth secretary Ramlan Ishak on Friday," he said here on Tuesday.

Karpal Singh was alleged to have said that the Sultan of Perak had no jurisdiction over the transfer of Datuk Jamry Sury from the Perak Religious Department.
