PETALING JAYA: Johor police chief M Kumar tonight denied that he had received aid from one “Datuk Abdul Malik” after a video clip featuring a man resembling him made its rounds on social media.
Kumar said the video had used an artificial intelligence-generated image, Bernama reported.
“The claim in the video that I had deposited the funds into a bank account is fake and baseless,” he was quoted as saying.
A report was subsequently lodged by an officer from the Johor police to enable an investigation under Section 419 and Section 420 of the Penal Code for impersonation and cheating, respectively.
The case is also being probed under Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 for improper use of network facilities.
Kumar said Johor police viewed the misuse of technology, including AI, for fraudulent or defamatory purposes seriously as it could tarnish the reputation of any party.
He also advised the public against sharing the video, and urged those with information to come forward and assist with the investigation.
