PETALING JAYA: Perak’s Sultan Nazrin Shah has warned that racial tensions will escalate unless immediate action is taken against those responsible for throwing a petrol bomb at a KK Mart store in Bidor, Perak.

KK Mart has been mired in controversy since March 13 after mistakenly selling socks bearing the word “Allah”, earning the ire of Muslims and sparking calls for a boycott by Umno Youth.On Tuesday evening, Perak police said CCTV footage from a KK Mart store in Bidor recorded a man alighting from a vehicle and throwing what appeared to be a glass bottle containing kerosene into the shop, with the police still working to track the suspect down. The Molotov cocktail failed to explode.

“Malaysians of all races and religions will be protected equally so that they can continue to live in peace and harmony, together building and developing a safe and prosperous Malaysia.”Perak police chief Yusri Hassan Basri previously said police were tracking down the suspect in the Bidor case, which is being investigated under Section 427 of the Penal Code for committing mischief by causing damage.

Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain has also issued a stern warning against any further exacerbation of the issue. On another matter, Zahidi said the Perak palace had been notified about a racially tinged statement that was issued based on a speech that Sultan Nazrin made in 2005 when he was the Perak crown prince.
