More than a year after her home in Jalan Ipoh was hit with petrol bombs, Seputeh MP Teresa Kok claimed she received yet another 'death threat' yesterday.

Speaking to reporters after lodging a police report over the matter at the Pandan Indah police station today, Kok said the threat was posted on her blog ‘Sassy MP'.

According to her, the threat was posted at 10.37am yesterday under the pseudonym ‘Hanturaya'. The message reads: " Teresa, kau ni patut diajar dengan darah. Terima kasih" (Teresa, you should be taught a lesson with blood. Thank you).

The comment, she added, was posted under the entry, "A second Malay DAP members' branch in Ampang", in reference to the setting up of DAP's Malay branch during the recent Hari Raya celebration.

She said that she was compelled to lodge the police report to "protect myself and my family from any type of threat".

"I'm worried for our safety because we were attacked in the past with two Molotov cocktails by certain quarters who were not happy with me.

"I hope the police and Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) will investigate this matter immediately," she said.

On Sept 27 last year, two Molotov cocktails were thrown into her family's home in Jalan Ipoh in Kuala Lumpur early in the morning.

Kok, 45, then said the attack could be related to her ISA detention on Sept 12 for allegedly raising Islamic issues. She was subsequently released a week later.

Lawyer: It's criminal intimidation

Kok's lawyer, Sankara Nair described the latest attack on his client as an "offense and criminal intimidation under the Penal Code".

" Darah (blood) means violence. So the police have the power to take action and investigate the person who wrote it," he said.

On a different note, Sankara lashed out at police officers who had set up a road block in front of the police station today, barring the press and several councillors from coming in.

Meanwhile, Teratai DAP assemblyperson Janice Lee said there is nothing to be upset about if Malays decided to join a Chinese-majority party and show support.

"When the second branch was set up, it was an obvious that the Malays were starting to support us for the things that we have fought for them.

"They also understood that DAP is not for a particular race, but for all people from all kinds of ethnic backgrounds," she further added.

A DAP Malay councillor also backed Lee's argument, saying that it is not a sensitive issue for Malays to join the party.

"Even Gerakan, of which 99 percent of its members are Chinese, has Malay members. Why is this not an issue then?" said Azli Idris, a councillor from Kuala Selangor.
