Najib Razak’s lawyer, Harpal Singh Grewal, had posted a picture of his client sleeping on the sofa during the police raid at his private residence in KL last week.
He had wanted to solicit sympathy for Najib and which I'm sure, pulled a few UMNO heartstrings.
Abdul Rahim Abdul Rahman who claimed to be Najib's long-time friend and an UMNO Port Dickson member disagreed with the police action, comparing it to communism.
Former UMNO minister Abdul Rahman Dahlan complained on Twitter that Najib’s treatment was inhumane, undignified and humiliating.
Oh my, how wretched, how woebegone, how sad!
Tears are welling in my eyes! I’m on the verge of breaking down!
I don’t recall anybody in UMNO and/or BN protesting when PKR’s Anwar Ibrahim was arrested in a commando-style raid. Nor did any of them say anything about Anwar being hounded with trumped-up charges in Sodomy II.
What about the humiliation suffered by PM Mahathir Mohamad when his personal staff – his cook, driver, secretary and police protection unit were unilaterally removed? Wasn’t that disrespectful?
And the other police arrests too. Cartoonist Zunar was dragged from one police station to another. Bersih 2.0's Maria Chin Abdullah was held in solitary confinement for no other reason than for speaking the truth. PKR’s Rafizi Ramli was seen barefoot and handcuffed. As well as many others.

Hold your crocodile tears, UMNO! Don’t shed them yet because Najib has not even been arrested.
Please wait for awhile longer and when Najib has been cuffed and thrown into the lock-up, then you UMNO people can whine, whimper and wail to your hearts' content!
But if you ask many Malaysians, we can't wait to see Najib and Rosmah bundled off to Sungai Buloh!
Below, are our sentiments actually!
