PETALING JAYA: The police have recorded the statements of three individuals in connection with members of an non-governmental organisation (NGO) wearing uniforms that closely resembled that of a uniformed body during an event recently.
Sungai Buloh OCPD Supt Mohd Hafiz Muhammad Nor said police have called up the three individuals to assist with the ongoing investigation.
"We have recorded their statements.
"We expect to wrap up the investigation by next week," he said when contacted on Saturday (Jan 4).
The police are also conducting further checks with the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) as well as the Registrar of Societies (ROS), he said.
"We will refer the investigation paper to the Deputy Public Prosecutor once the investigation is completed," he said.
It was reported that the police are investigating an NGO, whose members wore clothes closely resembling that of uniformed bodies.
Selangor Police Chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan had said that the police were notified of the incident via a video that showed the incident.
The video showed several individuals wearing clothes that resembled official ceremonial uniforms and other attire.
“The video that has gone viral could also bring confusion to the public that might assume that wearing these uniforms were not an offence,” he said.
