A group calling itself "Anak Malaysia Anti Demokrasi" has threatened to assassinate Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Khalid Abu Bakar by blowing up his car.

In a YouTube video, viewed through the Facebook page of Ameno World, the threat is issued by three individuals wearing balaclava with the Malaysian flag in the backdrop.

One of them also holds a photograph, but the image is not clear.

The video comes hot on the heels of criticism against the police chief on the Sedition Act crackdown.

The narrator - whose voice is digitally distorted - says the United States, Russia and China became developed and respected because the people did not choose democratic means to bring down corrupt regimes.

"Can Malaysians change the Election Commission (EC) chairperson, the attorney-general and the IGP by way of democracy?

"These people are the ones who destroy democracy.

"As such, we Malaysians who are anti-democracy, announce that we will kill the IGP by blowing up his car," added the narrator, with his face covered with the group's logo.

He further explained that doing so will ensure that heads of the country's agencies will be afraid to commit crimes against democracy.

The narrator then pushed two toy cars forward before one of the men in the video set one of the cars ablaze.

This was followed by the sound of a car exploding, and the video ended with the trio flashing their middle fingers.

It is not clear whether the group is related to the "Isis Malaysia 69" group , which wanted to set off fireworks at a courthouse.
