ALOR SETAR - Police yesterday arrested a man who had attempted to impersonate the Raja Muda of Perak at the office of the Sultan of Kedah here two months ago.

The 39-year-old man was detained at the Kota Setar district police headquarters (IPD) at about 5.30 pm, and has been placed under remand until Aug 21, district police chief ACP Ahmad Shukri Mat Akhir said.

The suspect is believed to have attempted to impersonate the Raja Muda of Perak when he appeared at the office of the Sultan of Kedah here at about 11.30 am on June 28.

"Based on information received, the man appeared with two women and produced a yellow-coloured card when introducing himself.

"The business card carried the words 'DYMM Raja Muda Perak Tuanku Tun Mamat Fadhil Duke Of Royal Malaysia British Bin DYTM Sheikh Tengku Lope Salleh Of Royal Irish Fusiller Princess Victoria',” Ahmad Shukri said in a statement today.
