Johor by-elections: deputy IGP say no reports on alleged harassment of reporters

This in response to claims minister’s bodyguard had tried to obstruct media covering ceramah

MUAR – Police have not received any reports regarding media practitioners, including two female reporters, who were allegedly harassed by a minister’s bodyguard while covering the by-elections in Johor on Tuesday.

Deputy IGP Datuk Seri Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay said that presently, a statement has only been issued by the media, and he himself is yet to receive a full report from police on the matter.

“Give us time and wait for the full investigation to be carried out first,” he told reporters after inspecting the voting process at SJK(C) Pei Chai, here today.

Yesterday, the media reported that the incidents on Tuesday took place during two ceramah for the Pulai by-election, in Taman Anggerik and Taman Dahlia.

It is also reported that several of the minister’s bodyguards tried to obstruct media personnel from carrying out their duties, including allegedly touching a female reporter’s hand while she was recording the press conference with her phone.

In the meantime, Ayob Khan said that the polling process for the Pulai and Simpang Jeram by-elections has been smooth, with no untoward incidents reported. – September 9, 2023
