Muhriz invited to Malaysia’s rulers council amid Negeri Sembilan dispute
Negeri Sembilan ruler Muhriz Munawir has been invited to Malaysia’s Conference of Rulers, which meets from Oct.
13 to 15.
He says he will attend only a preliminary meeting on Oct.
13.
The invitation comes amid a dispute over whether Muhriz or his cousin Nadzaruddin Ja’afar is the state’s ruler.
Negeri Sembilan’s traditional chieftains have proclaimed Nadzaruddin as ruler and say they removed Muhriz, but Malaysia’s attorney-general says the removal was unconstitutional.
The state’s constitution requires an inquiry into alleged wrongdoing by a ruler, and no inquiry was held.
Muhriz is also due to preside over the appointment of a new Jelebu chieftain on Oct.
14, which could strengthen his support among the state’s chieftains.
The dispute has left Negeri Sembilan without a functioning government since September.
