Live bullets for Hishamuddin...

Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said he received a written death threat and two live bullets by mail today. "I can confirm that I received two live bullets, posted to my office,” he said told reporters after a breaking of fast function in Kuala Lumpur. “Threats are common for me. But this is the first time I received one in the form of live bullets," he joked

A member of Hishammuddin's staff informed the media later that the two bullets were concealed inside two holes carved out of a booklet. The booklet contained a handwritten message detailing the threat but Hishammuddin refused to divulge its content to the media.

"I believe this is a matter for the authorities to handle," he said.

Asked if he had lodged a police report over the matter, he said that the staff who found the articles had already done so.

'Won't affect my duties'

The package was sent to his Putrajaya office through regular mail and was received at about 2pm and was opened by a clerk to one of his special officers. Hishammuddin said that he was undaunted with the incident and vowed to continue his duties.

"I view this as a serious matter but it will not effect my commitment to my work," he vowed.

The minister dismissed the threat as the actions of desperate parties. Hishammuddin joins the long list of politicians who have received death threats in the mail, accompanied by live bullets.

Among those includes DAP chairperson Karpal Singh, former deputy minister S Murugiah and Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua. The latest incident involved Kulim state assemblyperson Lim Soo Nee, who received a bullet and a note demanding that he does not seek re-election.

Khir must prove claims

In another development, Hishammuddin had asked former Selangor Menteri Besar Dr Mohd Khir Toyo to substantiate claims that three ministers had conspired to have him jailed.

"Things like this, it is best to ask the person making the claim. If he is transparent and his allegations has basis, he should bring the matter, which touched on an ongoing trial to the attention of the judiciary," he said.

Yesterday, Khir had dropped a bombshell when he wrote about the conspiracy in his blog. Khir has refused to name the trio because he does not have proof but insists that his source is very reliable.

In his posting, Khir said that one of the minister insist that the former must be jailed in order for BN to retake Selangor. Khir is currently facing graft charges. He is accused of receiving inducements in form of a heavily discounted mansion.

Menteri Dalam Negeri terima ugutan bunuh, peluru hidup

Menteri Dalam Negeri, Datuk Hishammuddin Hussein berkata beliau menerima ugutan bunuh bertulis dan dua peluru hidup melalui pos hari ini.

"Saya mengesahkan bahawa hari ini saya menerima dua butir peluru hidup yang dihantar melalui pos ke pejabat saya dan saya juga menerima ugutan. Ini adalah kali pertama saya menerima surat ugutan serta peluru. "Surat itu diterima oleh seorang pegawai saya dan beliau telah pun membuat laporan polis," katanya.

Bercakap kepada pemberita selepas menghadiri majlis berbuka puasa di Masjid al-Ikhlasiyah di Pantai Dalam di ibunegara, beliau bagaimanapun enggan memberitahu kandungan nota ugutan tersebut. Sampul surat itu dihantar ke pejabatnya di Putrajaya melalui pos biasa dan diterima pada kira-kira jam 2 petang dan dibuka oleh seorang kerani kepada salah seorang pegawai khasnya.

Seorang kakitangan Hishammuddin memberitahu media bahawa dua peluru hidup itu diletakkan dalam lubang yang ditebuk dalam sebuah buku. Hishammuddin berkata perkara tersebut tidak akan melemahkan semangatnya untuk terus menjalankan tugas seperti yang diamanahkan kepadanya.
