ALOR SETAR: The public has been advised to use the correct channels to complain about issues related to the administration of Covid-19 vaccines.

Deputy Inspector-General of Police Mazlan Lazim said police would investigate and take appropriate action if they received reports related to misconduct by any party involved in administering the vaccine.

“If there is any problem related to the vaccine, report it to the authorities and avoid spreading the matter on social media because it will cause problems to others. If there is a police report made, an investigation will be conducted.

“For example, if there is an allegation of death after receiving the vaccine, confirm what the real cause is. If it’s not due to the vaccine, don’t spread it, because it only will upset others,” he said after inspecting the roadblock at the Alor Setar Utara toll plaza here yesterday.

Mazlan was asked to comment on the “empty vaccine syringes” issue and allegations of deaths occurring after receiving the vaccine in posts which went viral on social media recently.

Earlier, National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme (PICK) coordinating minister Khairy Jamaluddin said that only one case out of 13 police reports filed on the issue of “empty syringes” had actually occurred.

This was due to negligence, he said, while the rest had no evidence as alleged on social media.

Mazlan also said 858 roadblocks had been set up nationwide during the movement control order with 13,286 personnel involved.

“I urge the public to cooperate by displaying valid travel documents. Don’t be rude to the officers and members on duty because they have been on duty for a long time, so we don’t want tensions to arise,” he said.

On Op Bantu, he said police had received 18,286 requests for help through phone calls and WhatsApp from people affected by the pandemic.

A total of 14,948 food baskets had been distributed through Op Bantu nationwide, he said. - FMT
