KUALA LUMPUR - Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain confirmed that police have received a report in connection with a man hurling stones at the PAS Headquarters in Jalan Raja Laut here, causing the glass wall to break.

Razarudin said the incident occurred at 5.30 am today and police are tracking down the suspect with the help of the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL).

"In the incident, the suspect, who was riding a motorcycle, had made some noise before hurling the stones at the glass wall of the building. Guards on duty in the building witnessed the incident.

"Police are tracking the suspect and, Insya-Allah, we will track him down soon,” he told a special media conference on Ops Cantas in conjunction with the state elections in Bukit Aman here today.
