The office of the minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) has lodged a police report at the Putrajaya district police headquarters (DPH) concerning a threat to splash acid on the minister concerned, Mujahid Yusof Rawa.
The report was lodged yesterday by Mohd Fikri Abdul Rahman, a representative of the minister’s office, together with an officer from DPH.
Putrajaya district police chief ACP Rosly Hasan, when contacted by Bernama, confirmed receiving the report.
‘’I confirm receiving a report and an investigation is being opened under Section 506 of the Penal code,’’ Rosly said.
The video of two minutes and 39 seconds was uploaded on social media by Facebook account user, Otai Daulat 812, last Wednesday.
Mohd Fikri, in a statement today, said the video showed a discussion concerning Mujahid by four individuals and ended with a call to splash acid on the minister.
‘’The call is very dangerous because it advocates a serious criminal act which can cause injury, in fact even death. The video itself contains news which was untrue and slanders, other than a serious threat to a minister,’’ he said in a statement late yesterday.
In this regard, Fikri urged the police and the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission to act firmly to check widespread slanders and instigations on social media.
