The police have been urged to investigate PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang and other politicians who have been labelling DAP as anti-Islam.

Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng said this would a "professional" move by Inspector-General of Police Mohamed Fuzi Harun, who said the police may also question Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng.

"Fuzi acted professionally when he said Guan Eng might be called in for questioning 'when the time comes,' but said there was no necessity to do so now.

"However, Fuzi, who is due to retire next month, should also be equally professional in investigating the many other cases involving certain politicians and individuals demonising DAP and party leaders with all sorts of defamatory remarks, such as being anti-Islam and anti-Malay.

"Hadi's repeated assertion that Malaysia has become a country run and dominated by non-Muslims is baseless, defamatory and filled with an intent to incite and this has not been investigated," Lip Eng said in a statement today.

PAS and Umno have repeatedly claimed that the Pakatan Harapan federal government has failed to look after the interests of Malays and Muslims, blaming this on the DAP, which has 42 seats in Parliament.

A total of 58 police reports have been lodged nationwide against Guan Eng over his statement last week urging MCA to immediately leave BN because Umno and PAS were now "declaring war" on non-Muslims.

Guan Eng issued a correction several hours later, which replaced the phrase "declaring war" with "targeting" in the statement.

Both the original statement and the corrected version were in Chinese and issued in his capacity as DAP leader.

Guan Eng is being probed under Section 505(c) of the Penal Code for making remarks with "intent to incite or which is likely to incite any class or community of persons to commit any offence against any other class or community of persons".
