  "account": "Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching denied allegations linking her to Johor's shadowy business dealings and a road accident currently under police investigation. The DAP deputy leader emphasized that the circulating allegations against her are false and baseless, stating that new social media accounts were created specifically to make accusations against her. Teo has been active in politics for 18 years and served as a Member of Parliament for 13 years. She recounted meeting someone only once or twice, or having a few photos together at community events, when questioned about the allegations. \"However, accusing me of involvement in such activities is a false charge because they only show pictures of me with someone else, which is ordinary social activity.\" Teo told reporters after a community event at Putra Heights, noting that police in Johor had held a media hearing and confirmed that 13 suspects were arrested, adding that the police are conducting a thorough investigation. Meanwhile, Senai MP Wong Bo Yang reported police complaints to IPD Kulai related to the spreading of false allegations and defamation against Teo and DAP. Teo, who also serves as DAP Johor's deputy leader, cautioned the public against easily believing information spread on social media without verification. He has already filed complaints with the Communications and Multimedia Commission of Malaysia (SKMM) and the police. \"However, the main challenge is that the decision to close an account or stop the spread is ultimately up to Meta, and not all fake news can be removed definitively.\"",
