Karpal took wrong route, say police

If someone would ask me what is the funniest thing happen this year. I would like to tell them about my beautiful country "Malaysia". Sometimes I wonder the accuracy of the media reporting events, functions, news etc. If what they reported is true (article below), I think this is another laughing stock.

Questions:

1. Why does Karpal need a different route? Is it that they foresee politic hooligans exist?

2. If they see these hooligans, what are they going to do? Allow them to continue?

3. Does that means by throwing bottle missiles is right?

4. What happen if it happen to a ruling party politician who get caught in similar incident? (definitely some people will get arrested.)

5. When they (you know which party) see Karpal's MPV, should they behave the way they should?

The Star reports:

TAIPING: Police have blamed DAP national chairman Karpal Singh for “encroaching” into Barisan Nasional “territory” which led to an altercation near the nomination centre for the Bukit Gantang by-election.

Perak police chief Deputy Commissioner Datuk Zulkifli Abdullah said Karpal Singh had taken the wrong route to enter the Taiping Municipal Council Hall instead of the one assigned to supporters of the opposition parties.

In the incident, Karpal Singh’s Toyota MPV with seven people inside was pelted with plastic water bottles by Barisan supporters at 10.45am.

He later lodged a police report at the district police headquarters.

Speaking to reporters here, DCP Zulkifli said the police had allocated different routes to Barisan and opposition supporters to prevent clashes.

“Maybe Karpal Singh did not know about that.

“He should have listened to our advice,” he said, adding that the incident would be investigated.
