Umno denies involvement with Facebook page insulting Agong

Umno headquarters has denied any involvement with the Facebook page 'Sabah-Sarawak Merdeka', which contains secessionist messages and edited images of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong. 

The page lists the official Umno headquarters phone number under its contact details.

"We take this matter seriously and action will be taken by making a report to the authorities, so that there won't be any wrongdoing which may tarnish the good name of the party's headquarters and Umno itself," said Umno working secretary Mohd Sumali Reduan, as reported by Umno Online today.

He said the Umno head office has never had or given any party permission to establish a Facebook page or any other related social media presence.

It is up to the authorities to take action in this matter, he said.

The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) also released a statement today saying they are investigating those who have insulted the Agong on social media.

"Very irresponsible parties have uploaded insulting images of the Agong onto Facebook last night.

"Investigation will commence following reports received by the MCMC from the public for immediate action to be taken against the relevant parties," the statement read.

MCMC said they have been informed that the police are also investigating this matter. It added that the probe was being coordinated, and information being gathered. 

The investigation is being carried out under Section 233(1) of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.

Those convicted can be fined RM50,000 or imprisoned for not more than a year, or both. - Mkini
