Raub: Police will summon five individuals, including Raub Member of Parliament Chow Yu Hui, to assist in investigations into the case of obstructing public servants from discharging their duties during a recent enforcement operation at a durian farm in Raub.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Raub police chief Supt Mohd Shahril Abd Rahman stated that Chow, who serves as the Save Musang King Alliance advisor, would be called in soon to assist with investigations under Section 186 of the Penal Code. “So far, we have received three police reports related to the operation and investigations are ongoing,” he told Bernama when contacted.

Police confirmed that the reports were lodged by an officer from the State Enforcement Unit, the police, and a non-governmental organisation. Meanwhile, Mohd Shahril mentioned that enforcement activities at the durian farms would continue as planned by the authorities.

Media reports indicated that farmers had blocked access routes and displayed banners to express their dissatisfaction after enforcement personnel destroyed their decades-old crops. However, the situation was managed without any untoward incidents. Previously, the Pahang government denied violating a court order when it felled around 200 Musang King durian trees during the enforcement operation in Sungai Klau, Raub, on April 8.
