A battle royal being waged for control of a Malaysian sultanate was exposed Friday after a failed attempt to oust the ailing leader's heir apparent.Uncertainty has plagued the royal family in northern Kelantan state since mid-2009 after Sultan Ismail Petra suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized in neighboring Singapore. The 60-year-old ruler returned to Kelantan last month, but has not been seen in public and his health remains a subject of speculation.
Sultan Ismail's eldest son, Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra, 40, became the acting ruler during his father's absence but apparently feuded with his younger brother, Tengku Muhammad Fakhry. He removed Fakhry from the state's powerful Council of Succession, which determines who ascends to the throne, in September. Fakhry, 31, challenged the move in court, but failed in January to reverse it.

Malaysian sultan 'held in hospital against his will'
The Lawyers for an ailing Kelantan's Sultan Tengku Ismail Petra say he is being held against his will since May 4th and have sought a court order to secure his release. - BBC News
The car bearing the Sultan of Kelantan and Raja Perempuan was ambushed mere metres from the Royal Palace by armed men, and guns were aimed at the head of its driver. In shocking claims made in an affidavit filed yesterday, the Sultan’s third son Tengku Temenggong Tengku Muhammad Fakhry Petra (see post #246 in this thread about the prince) said the driver was forcibly dragged out of the vehicle by the men, who were in balaclavas and armed with semi-automatic weapons. - The Star Online

Right royal end to palace crisis
Sultan Muhammad Faris has ascended the throne after a year of palace intrigues that saw the Kelantan palace making news as never before. It has not been the best of times for the Kelantan royal house which staggered from one controversy to another.
It began with the acrimonious marital break-up of the Sultan’s youngest brother Tengku Muhammad Fakhry and his beautiful Indonesian wife that made headlines in the region.
Then, when his father suffered a stroke, a power struggle broke out between the Sultan and his once-powerful mother, the Raja Perempuan Tengku Anis Tengku Abdul Hamid. - The Star online

New Sultan of Kelantan
No power grab in Kelantan, says constitutional expert
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 13 – Constitutional law expert Professor Aziz Bari said today that Kelantan Regent Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra’s installation as the state ruler today is constitutional.Aziz dismissed accusations of a power grab in the long-standing Kelantan palace crisis that began after the regent’s father, Sultan Tuanku Ismail Petra Sultan Yahya Petra, suffered a stroke in May last year.
“There is no question of a power grab or that the constitutional monarchy concept has been contravened because what is being done clearly follows the conditions and philosophy underlying that concept,” Aziz told The Malaysian Insider today. “It should have been done earlier on,” he added.
The academic from the International Islamic University stressed that resignations and terminations were “usual” in the constitutional monarchy system, citing instances in Selangor, Perlis and Terengganu after World War II during British rule, as well as in countries like Brunei and the United Kingdom.
