GEORGE TOWN: Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng challenged Inspector-General Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar for a debate on the outlawed Voluntary Patrol Unit (PPS).
Lim said if the top cop was right in arresting 156 PPS members, then Khalid should prove it.
"If Khalid thinks he is right in the arrests, then I challenge him for a debate”.
Yesterday, police arrested PPS members after their Merdeka march-past at the Esplanade.
Among those arrested was state executive councillor Phee Boon Poh, who is also PPS chairman.
They are investigated under the Societies Act 1966.
