Azmin: Umno betrayed Malay rulers

Selangor Menteri Besar Azmin Ali has accused Umno of betraying the Malay rulers with the amendments to the Federal Constitution in 1993.
He said this when asked by a reporter to respond to former Selangor Menteri Besar Muhammad Muhammad Taib, who alleged that the current menteri besar did not defend Selangor Ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah.
Recently, cops questioned former law minister Zaid Ibrahim over his tweets regarding Selangor ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah.
Zaid is being investigated under the Sedition Act 1948 for his tweets in response to the ruler stating that former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad's anger could raze the nation.
Sultan Sharafuddin also described Mahathir as someone with an “inferiority complex” and “deep hatred”.
Zaid then tweeted that the Selangor ruler “should be careful with his words” and that “no one is immune when the country burns”.
His comment courted flak from Umno leaders who, among others, torched cardboard cutouts of the former minister. The sultan himself rebuked Zaid for being rude.
