Denial on fake news as at 9 am, Dec 26 – KKMM

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 26 — Following is the response from the responsible agency  through a media statement by the Quick Response Team of the Communications and Multimedia Ministry (KKMM) on fake news that was viralled on social media today.

The Selangor Police Contingent Police have denied the authenticity of the 0.32-second video clip that was viralled on social media, purportedly on a group of people being accommodated at the Shah Alam indoor stadium due to congestion at the Sungai Buloh Hospital, which could no longer  accommodate COVID-19 patients.

The Selangor Police Contingent Police advised the public to stop sharing and disseminating news from unreliable sources as it can create panic, disharmony, and threaten public order.
