Police sends probe papers on Umno delegate’s priest-nun comment to AGC

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 18 — The police will forward the investigation papers concerning Selangor delegate Datuk Noorazli Said's remarks during the 2026 Umno General Assembly to the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) on Sunday, according to Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Datuk M Kumar. The case falls under Section 298 of the Penal Code and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, he explained.

The police have received 86 reports and recorded statements from 93 witnesses, comprising members of the public, organisers, Umno delegates and Noorazli himself. The public is urged not to speculate or spread unverified information, as this could interfere with the investigation or harm network facilities. All parties must collaborate to maintain a secure digital environment and promote a mature, respectful communication culture for societal well-being and national stability.

The controversy arose after Noorazli made a remark allegedly involving a Catholic priest and a nun, as reported by Bernama.
