KUALA LUMPUR – Kelantan state secretary Datuk Nazran Muhammad has confirmed that the Darjah Kebesaran Setia Mahkota Kelantan Yang Amat Terbilang (DPSK) conferred on former Community Communications Department (J-Kom) director-general Datuk Dr Mohammad Agus Yusoff in 2011 has been revoked.

In a brief response via WhatsApp, he said, “Yes, correct… as stated in the directive.”

Angus, when contacted yesterday, however, declined to comment on the matter following a directive purportedly issued by the Kelantan government on December 28 of last year. 

The directive, which disclosed that state honours had been revoked, made the rounds on social media yesterday.

It was stated in the directive that the Sultan of Kelantan, Sultan Muhammad V, who conferred the DPSK, which carries the title ‘Datuk’ to Agus on November 12, 2011, was revoked on December 2, last year. – January 19, 2024
