Question

Accepted Answer

The Dewan Keadilan dan Undang Did Not Unanimously Advise on Removing the Undang of Sungei Ujong

Four Undang in Negeri Sembilan have publicly challenged the Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun's assertion that the Dewan Keadilan dan Undang (DKU) unanimously advised on the removal of the Undang of Sungei Ujong, Datuk Mubarak Dohak. In a joint statement, these four Undang, including Datuk Mubarak Dohak himself, declared that no collective and unanimous decision was reached by the DKU members present during a special session. They further stated that the Mentri Besar's account was inaccurate and not in accordance with the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959.
Dispute Over Collective Decision-Making

The core of the dispute lies in the interpretation of the DKU meeting's outcome. The Mentri Besar's office had previously stated that the DKU had advised the Luak of Sungei Ujong to accept the removal of Datuk Mubarak Dohak. However, the four Undang explicitly refuted this, asserting that members present at the special session did not arrive at a collective and unanimous decision regarding the matter. This directly contradicts the official narrative presented by the Mentri Besar's office.
Adherence to State Constitution and Adat

The four Undang emphasized that the Mentri Besar's statement was not in accordance with the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959. They also indicated that they did not agree with the purported removal of Mubarak as the Undang of Sungei Ujong, a process that Aminuddin had claimed followed Article 14(3) of the state constitution, citing alleged breaches of 'adat' and customary law. The Undang's joint statement suggests a disagreement with the legal and customary basis for the removal as presented by the Mentri Besar.
Broader Disagreements on State Leadership

Beyond the specific issue of the Sungei Ujong Undang's removal, the four Undang expressed their disagreement with another statement made by Aminuddin on April 20. They declared their support for a declaration made on April 19 concerning changes in the state's leadership, which included deposing the 11th Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan and installing the next state Ruler. Furthermore, they asserted that Aminuddin is no longer fit to lead the state administration and should be replaced.
