“Therefore, we leave it to the police investigation,” he said when met here today.
On January 2, police seized various pictures and cups displaying caricatures of communist leaders at a two-storey restaurant near Jalan Icon City, Juru, here.
The raid was carried out after receiving information from a special branch of the Seberang Perai Tengah District Police Headquarters (IPD) about a premises belonging to a local man and his Chinese wife pasting a picture of communist leader, Mao Tse-tung.
It is understood that during the raid, both were not at the premises due to the Covid-19 quarantine period.
