Chinese-based political parties continued to lodge police reports against Umno leader Ahmad Ismail for allegedly making racist remarks that contravene the country’s tough sedition laws - drawn to maintain harmonious relations among ethnic groups.

Ahmad, the relatively unknown division chief of Umno Bukit Bendera division, burst into the limelight last week for allegedly describing the Chinese here as immigrants squatting in Malaysia and as such, said they should not expect to be treated equally.
