A DAP member who alleged that he was assaulted by gangsters in a party meet last week has received calls from unknown people who want to assault him.
“I received the first phone call at 10.23pm from an unknown Indian man. The caller wanted to kick, beat and chop me up.
“I also received another threatening call, this time from a private number about 26 minutes later,” said Taman Murni DAP branch chairman, A Thirumalvalavan in his police report.
The police report was lodged a short while later at Sepang district police headquarters in Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi.
He claimed that the threatening calls were made as a result of his allegations that DAP has gangsters within the party fold.
“The man threatened me because I spoke to the media on Friday,” said Thirumalvalavan.
On Friday, he and another party member R Selvan alleged that they were assaulted by gangsters when they attempted to give a memorandum that also included allegations of gangsterism within the party.
Both Thirumalvalavan and Selvan along with Pantai Putra Sepang branch secretary Rashid Md Gani also questioned the DAP secretary-general, Lim Guan Eng and Selangor DAP chief, Teresa Kok for ignoring the issue even though both Lim and Kok had witnessed the incident on Monday.
