KUALA LUMPUR: Police have urged the public to refrain from speculating on the case involving former Community Communications Department (J-KOM) director-general Datuk Dr Mohammad Agus Yusoff, after a video of an individual resembling him and a J-KOM staff went viral.
Bukit Aman Criminal Investigations Department director Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain said such action could potentially disrupt the ongoing investigations and warned that strict legal action would be taken against those found violating the law.
He also confirmed that Agus and Bersatu Information Committee member Badrul Hisham Shaharin, who is better known as Chegubard had their statements recorded today under Section 112 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
The case is being investigated under Section 500 of the Penal Code and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1988. -- BERNAMA
