KUALA TERENGGANU – Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil today dismissed an allegation that one of his officers is under investigation by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
He said the allegation was untrue, baseless, and malicious.
“So far, none of my officers have been called by theMACC. We have confirmed this matter,” he told reporters after attending a town hall session with the staff of the Terengganu Communications and Digital Ministry at the RTM Auditorium here.
Fahmi said he had asked his political secretary to file a police report on the allegation.
“I want to give a warning and advice: if you are not sure, don’t share it. Please check before spreading (false news). The Communications and Multimedia Commission is monitoring and action will be taken if necessary,” he said.
Yesterday, Edisi Siasat via its Telegram channel claimed that Fahmi and Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Minister Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad had sacked their respective officers over the alleged probe. – Bernama, May 13, 2023
