Police receive two reports accusing religious affairs minister of defying MCO

KUALA LUMPUR, May 14 — Kajang Police today confirmed that they had received two reports alleging that Religious Affairs Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Zulkifli Mohamad Al Bakri had defied the movement control order (MCO).

Kajang Police chief ACP Mohd Zaid Hassan said the police enquiry paper had been opened for the purpose of a preliminary investigation.

“So far, only an oral statement from the complainant has been recorded.

“Statements from other parties will be taken upon instructions from the Selangor Police Contingent headquarters,” he told Bernama when contacted here.

It is learnt that the 43-year-old complainant had lodged the police reports after checking the Facebook page of the minister who had allegedly posted various news and pictures of his activities.

In the reports, the complainant claimed that Zulkifli had defied the MCO by ignoring social distancing rules while engaging himself in those activities.
