Kuala lumpur: The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) have advised the public to exercise caution and refrain from making extreme remarks touching on sensitive religious and racial issues on social media. Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Mohd Khalid Ismail emphasized that Malaysians should act maturely and not use social media platforms to provoke tensions that could undermine national harmony.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, the public is encouraged to refer to authentic sources and official documents before making any statements to avoid misunderstandings. Mohd Khalid expressed a desire for the peaceful and harmonious atmosphere to continue, especially with the approach of the festive season. His remarks came after attending the PDRM breaking-of-fast event with Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail at the Police Training Centre (PULAPOL).

He was responding to criticism on social media following a public university student's post deemed insulting and defamatory towards the Quran on the Threads platform. Mohd Khalid confirmed that the student will be charged at the Kuantan Magistrate's Court in Pahang.

The Inspector-General of Police stated that the Attorney-General had given consent to charge the suspect after reviewing the case and finding sufficient evidence for legal proceedings. The suspect, currently in police custody, is reported to be in good condition during the remand period.

On February 25, a student from Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah (UMPSA) was detained to assist investigations for allegedly insulting Islam on social media, with 62 police reports lodged nationwide in connection with the case.

During the event, Mohd Khalid also received a RM50,000 contribution from Yayasan Pembangunan Ekonomi Islam Malaysia (YAPEIM) to support welfare activities for PDRM personnel at Masjid Sallehin in PULAPOL throughout Ramadan.
