DAP Leader and member of Parliament Karpal Singh received a live bullet in an envelope at his law firm in Kuala Lumpur this afternoon.
The live bullet was accompanied with a note warning to him against speaking out on the controversial issues of Malay Rights and the constitutional powers of the sultans.
The wheelchair-bound politician lodged a police report over the death threat at 5pm at Dang Wangi Police Station.
Met at the police station later this evening, Karpal told reporters that the envelope was hand-delivered to his receptionist at 12:30pm.
"The man was wearing a helmet and he had his visors drawn down, he left hurriedly,"he said, adding the police have confrimed that bullet was a 9mm "live bullet"
When quizzed by his reporters, Karpal said he had no clue who was the culprits were and would not rule out that the incident could be politically motivated.
"It's difficult for me to say, but based on the wordings of the note, it appears to have political motives, "he said.
