PETALING JAYA: The Facebook page of a deputy minister has been sabotaged, resulting in the disappearance of his posts.
Deputy Energy Transition and Water Transformation Minister Akmal Nasir (pic) reported that he noticed on Monday (June 9) that all his Facebook posts since the end of 2022 had disappeared.
"This issue became apparent when all posts related to the PKR 2025 Election campaign vanished hours earlier, followed by the removal of other posts later that day," he wrote on Facebook on Thursday (June 12).
Upon contacting Meta, Facebook's parent company, it was confirmed that the incident was an act of sabotage by an individual, he said.
Akmal added that he has instructed his legal team to consider pursuing actions against those involved in the incident if sufficient evidence is found.
Previously, Akmal failed to defend his position as Johor Bahru PKR chief but was later elected to the PKR central leadership council during the party's polls.
In response, Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil stated on X that he had been in contact with Akmal and would request Meta to restore the deleted Facebook posts.
"I just got in touch with YB Akmal and will ask the team at Meta to try to restore the posts and identify who was responsible for this," he said.
