KUALA LUMPUR:
The DAP leadership has condemned the death threat made against its vice-chairman Teresa Kok, who is also the Seputeh MP.

DAP secretary-general Loke Siew Fook said all acts of violence are unacceptable, especially when addressing differences of opinion in politics.

“The entire DAP leadership stands in solidarity with her (Kok) in facing this threat,” he said in a Facebook post.

Police had earlier confirmed receiving a report from Kok that she found an envelope in her mailbox yesterday which contained two bullets and a warning note.

Loke also thanked the police for acting swiftly after receiving the report.

“I am confident the police will investigate the case thoroughly and arrest those responsible for the crime,” he said.
