Police deny Bukit Aman was attacked

KUALA LUMPUR - Police today denied claims on Facebook that the police headquarters in Bukit Aman, here, has been attacked, resulting in deaths and injuries.

Bukit Aman's Inspector-General of Police secretariat (Corporate Communication), Supt Lai Lee Ching said the situation in Bukit Aman was peaceful and operating as usual.

He stressed that the dissemination of false news was a despicable act and police would act firmly against the culprit.

"In a follow up to the spread of such rumours, a police report was lodged and the case will be investigated under Section 505 (b) of the Penal Code which carries a two-year jail sentence, fine or both," he said in a statement today.

Lai also urged the public not to spread such false news or risk answering to the law.

The statement on Facebook, among others, claimed that Bukit Aman was attacked by a group of suicide bombers which resulted in deaths and injuries among policemen.
