Investigation committee to look into lewd tweets on MCMC account set up

 


The Communications and Multimedia Ministry (KKMM) has established a Committee for the Investigation of Indecent Remarks Cases in 2014 in response to vulgar content that had been posted on the official Twitter account of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC).

KKMM secretary-general (sec-gen) Mohammad Mentek said the committee will be chaired by KKMM deputy sec-gen Tan Chuan Ou and will comprise four members.

The committee will conduct a detailed investigation starting today into the old tweets containing indecent remarks on the MCMC Twitter account to identify how it surfaced through the examination of documents, rules, operating methods, parties involved, and the possibility of elements of abuse or misappropriation.

"This committee will also recommend appropriate action, including disciplinary action, (lodging) a police report or reporting to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) or bringing a civil action in court against the parties involved if there is negligence or misconduct in this issue," he said in a statement last night.

He also said the investigation would be carried out transparently and a report on the results of the investigation would be submitted to Minister Saifuddin Abdullah for further action.

He added that improvement measures will also be proposed to ensure that such an incident does not recur.

The MCMC had in an earlier statement claimed that its Twitter account was "hacked" by unscrupulous parties.

The tweets which are dated 2014 are said to have been made when the account was handled by the previous owner.
