KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission has instructed social media platforms to remove audio and video content alleging corruption involving state assemblymen related to a mineral project procurement in Sabah .
"The police are handling a death threat case. They requested the commission’s assistance because there are videos that could compromise the investigation. They asked the commission to take them down. “However, the commission is not involved in the investigation itself; we were only asked to take down the content," he added.
The discussions in the videos involve a businessman who reportedly requested politicians, including senior officials, to return the money after the licence for the project was revoked. However, the businessman’s face is not visible in the recordings.
