00:00The Attorney General's Chambers, AGC, said the Negeri Sembilan Mentri Besar and State Executive Council have no unilateral power to
00:09remove Yang Di Pertuan Besar, Tuanku Muhriz, Tuanku Munawir.
00:13It said the April 19th proclamation purporting to remove Tuanku Muhriz under Article 10 of the State Constitution was invalid,
00:22as mandatory requirements and procedures were not met.
00:25The AGC said there was also no evidence that any grounds under Article 10, subsection 1, applied to Tuanku Muhriz.
00:34It added that the State Executive Council's recent announcement had no legal effect as it lacked constitutional authority to make
00:44such a decision.
00:45Any attempt to gazette or enforce the proclamation would therefore be invalid and unconstitutional.
00:51The AGC also questioned the validity of several Datuk Datuk Undang who signed the proclamation, saying their positions were disputed
01:01following their removal according to the customs of their respective luwak.
01:06As such, it said, the Undang Yang Empat was not fully constituted when the proclamation was signed.
01:12The matter is before the High Court of Malaya in Seremban, where an interlocutory injunction remains in force.
