00:01The Dewan Keadilan dan Undang, or DKU, says it intends to launch contempt proceedings against Negeri Sembilan, Mentri Besar, Dato'
00:11Ismail Lasim, and the State Executive Council, over a statement issued Wednesday, declaring valid the earlier removal of Tuanku Muhriz
00:19Tuanku Munawir as Yang Di-Pertuan Besar.
00:23Lawyers representing the DKU said the Exco had no jurisdiction or authority to make such a declaration, calling the announcement

01:17to remove a Yang Di-Pertuan Besar, and said the matter should go through proper legal and constitutional channels, a
