PETALING JAYA: There is no social media monitoring of the Johor royal family’s social media accounts, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun said in a press statement on Monday (Sept 10).

“In response to the Tunku Mahkota Johor’s Facebook statement titled ‘My Father and I Being Monitored’, the police wish to assure the Johor Palace that this is not taking place."

"I will seek an audience with His Majesty the Johor Sultan to brief him over this matter,” the IGP said.

On Sunday (Sept 9) on a Facebook post, The Crown Prince of Johor has alleged that he and his father Johor Ruler Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar were "being monitored".

Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim also claimed that cybertroopers were active on their personal and Johor Southern Tigers Facebook pages.

"It is not nice when officials come to me saying that my father, the Sultan and Johor and I are being monitored. And that there are cybertroopers planted, waiting in case there is something that does not go down well with certain higher-ups.

"Yes, I am vocal and that is simply because I care for Johor and its people. I will not stand still if there are certain parties trying to take advantage of the people of Johor or break this unique unity we have."
