Don’t ridicule the turban, Malaysian Sikh top cop tells RPK

Malaysia’s top Sikh cop Amar Singh rebuked political commentator Raja Petra Kamarudin for dragging race and the turban into his criticism of the police handing the on-going 1MDB investigations.

Federal Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) director Commissioner Amar said he was surprised that RPK, as the UK-based commentator is popularly known, had snapped back ‘with a demeaning and derogatory statement to ridicule a person due to race’.

“Racist and discriminatory remarks are the weapons used by the weak……..the maximum of hatred for the minimum of reason.

“The Sikhs hold the turban to very high regard don’t ridicule and try to undermine us……..we have a much stronger grit and courage in us,” he said in a short note on his personal Facebook page. When contacted by Asia Samachar, Amar confirmed the posting.

In his latest article on his blog entitled ‘Amar Singh’s Turban Must Be Too Tight’, Raja Petra had questioned the actual value of cash and valuables from the residences linked to former Malaysian premier Najib Razak in connection with the 1MDB investigations.

These are the paragraphs where the turban is mentioned:

Amar Singh Ishar Singh’s turban must be too tight that it is restricting the flow of blood to his brain. Today he called me a mercenary writer. Everyone is a mercenary, Amar Singh included. We all work for money, every single human being in this world. Even Mother Teresa needed money, plenty of money, to do what she did.

This Amar Singh needs to remove his turban to clear his brain once in a while.

Let me tell you one thing, Amar Singh, there is more honour amongst thieves than amongst policemen. I would rather trust the word of Botak Chin than trust your word. So, show the evidence that you confiscated just RM116.7 and not RM160 million or else remove your turban and stuff it into your mouth.

  1. Well moron’s like RPK can only do such rubbish comments. Orelse why would he want to leave Malaysia? Go study about Sikhs before u start judging them. Seems ur brain aren’t functioning well man.

  3. I have been this morning contacted by the GMP and assured the report would be processed tomorrow and passed to the relevant race hate unit to b followed up.

    The officer mentioned that this is not the first time, he created mischief, as reports relating to other mischief have been made.He has been cautioned.

    But that race hate activity is serious.I informed her, i m contacting my MP to pursue this investigation

    I impressed that as the local Sikh population gets to know, there is likelihood of serious breach of peace,triggered by his insensitive race hate remarks.

    This was taken seriously by the officer to b pursued tomorrow.

    The following was text message from the GMPolice confirming the report and number.

    I will pursue this to the end.

    From: Greater Manchester Police – This is a message for Gurcharan . As per your recent police report your crime number is 262433f/18. Should you require any further information, please call the Local Resolution Desk on 0161 856 3020 quoting the above crime number. Thank you.

  4. This crap RPK needs to first establish his parentage which seems doubtful here. Let him prove himself by performing even 1% of what these Khalsas perform 24/7. He will only let out hot air.

  5. ……. Gurcharan Singh Ji , good of you to do so .. I hope that your action will have fruitful results soon ..
    This RPK used to write anti BN articles but suddenly switched to pro UMNO .. When he used to write anti BN articles …… I think some police reports were lodged against him and he ran off to UK ..
    In his latest article …… he has associated Indira Ghandi’s assassination to the articles written in connection with Sardar Amar Singh .. His article seems to be anti Sikhs ..
    This Malay writes anti Sikhs articles but over at Port Dickson by elections its a different story ……. a prominent Malay shows that he is pro Sikhs .. Anwar Ibrahim , a candidate for the by elections and PM ” in waiting ” started his elections campaign by visiting Gurdwara Sahib Port Dickson .. It has been reported in Malaysiakini news portal with photo ..The photo shows Anwar Ibrahim with his head covered together with the Sikh Sangat ..
    Keep us informed of the results of your report lodged here in Asia Samachar ..

  6. This breaks UK race laws.

    A report no TV1-5384-18-0100-GMP was made on line for inciting possible racial and religious ridicule of a community based upon the relgiously required attire, esspecially singly it out, in article that based upon personal disagreement with government officials.This could give rise to active racists to target a minority community, esspecially a community very misunderstood often.

    I will push for the authorities to takeba stern action against him for ridiculing the dastaar.
