MELAKA: Police will summon the individual who circulated a video of a policeman allegedly blocking an ambulance to allow passage for a convoy of foreign investors last Thursday (Dec 11).
Melaka police chief Datuk Dzulkhairi Mukhtar said an investigation paper will be opened under Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 for the improper use of network facilities or services.
"We welcome information from the public if it concerns police misconduct, but we reject any attempts to slander the police.
"We will not compromise. I will personally look into this matter, and we will ensure that those who intentionally defame the police are held accountable," he said when met after the closing of the Legacy 04 RX-Z X 125ZR Melaka Attack by Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh at the Melaka International Trade Centre (MITC) Ayer Keroh Square on Friday (Dec 12) night.
Earlier, Dzulkhairi, in a statement, said that the traffic personnel did not obstruct the movement of an ambulance as claimed in the viral video, and that the siren heard in the recording was from the police escorting a delegation of investors from China. - Bernama
