KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): Police will be conducting investigations into the viral sex video clip that is allegedly linked to a minister, says Deputy Inspector-General of Police  Datuk Mazlan Mansor (pic).

Declining to reveal further details, Mazlan said a police report was lodged on the matter Tuesday (June 11).

"We are investigating the authenticity of the video clip,” he told Bernama.

Media reports Wednesday (June 12) published allegations by an individual regarding a sex video purporting to implicate Economic Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali.

In a statement Wednesday, Mohamed Azmin also categorically denied the accusation, calling it a vicious libel on him.

He said he had instructed his lawyers to take appropriate legal action against the individual who made these abominable allegations as well as against the other perpetrators. - Bernama
