Subang Jaya police open investigation into viral Facebook claim against officers

The Subang Jaya police have initiated an investigation into a viral Facebook post that allegedly contains defamatory statements against police officers. The incident occurred at a petrol station in Batu 14, Puchong, Selangor, where a police officer reported receiving a complaint at 10.54pm. According to the officer, the post, uploaded by a user named ‘Izz Fairuzz’, claimed that a police patrol vehicle blocked traffic while the officers waited for food from a foreign trader at the petrol station without paying.

The police have traced the Facebook account owner and emphasized the need for the public to refrain from speculation and allow the investigation to proceed without interference. Those with relevant information are urged to contact the Subang Jaya IPD district control centre at 03-7862 7100, with the assurance that their identity will remain confidential.
