Miti director rubbishes claims in viral screenshot, says will lodge police report

PETALING JAYA: An Investment, Trade, and Industry Ministry (Miti) director has rubbished a supposed WhatsApp conversation that claimed that a former Perdana Fellow with fake credentials would be able to return to Miti to "carry on as usual".

"I would like to clarify that with regard to the screenshot of my alleged conversation with a Perdana Fellow, the statement 'KBS (Youth and Sports Ministry) had to issue a statement to keep the public quiet. YB has requested for you to come to Miti tomorrow and carry on as usual' is totally fabricated.
