(Facebook pic) PETALING JAYA : Terengganu menteri besar Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar has submitted a memorandum to the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) over alleged 'excessive monitoring' by the authorities. The memorandum was handed over by Samsuri's political secretary Soud Said to Suhakam chairman Hishamudin Yunus. 'The submission of this memorandum is to protest the excessive monitoring I have been placed under, which can be construed as political intimidation and a violation of my rights. 'Through this, I hope that any form of abuse of power involved would be immediately stopped,' the PAS vice-president said. Samsuri previously claimed he had been marked as a person of risk in the nation's border control system and even had his phone tapped. The Terengganu menteri besar also said he was held back by authorities at the Kota Kinabalu International Airport during a recent personal trip to Sabah. He claimed this process required clearance by the police's Special Branch. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim downplayed the issue and said it was not unusual for VIPs to be flagged, adding that he himself was subject to such monitoring. Home minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail also dismissed Samsuri's complaints, saying there was no need to spy on the menteri besar as he had a security detail assigned to him. Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain also said there was no basis to include Samsuri in the special surveillance list as he was not a criminal.
