Police: Drug trafficking case mentioned in podcast near Sentul IPD dates back to 2016

A drug trafficking case near a place of worship in Sentul, Kuala Lumpur, from 2016, was recounted in a viral podcast.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Fadil Marsus confirmed three police reports were made regarding the case on July 12, 2016.

Fadil stated the podcast's publicity was unwarranted and emphasised the importance of careful information dissemination to maintain police integrity and public trust.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 19 — The drug trafficking case near a place of worship close to the Sentul District Police Headquarters (IPD), recounted in the @Sembangohhyeahh podcast, dates back to 2016.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Fadil Marsus said three police reports were lodged in connection with the case on July 12, 2016.

Fadil said his department had detected a video from the podcast that went viral this morning. The video featured a journalist recounting an undercover assignment to expose drug trafficking activities in the area, while claiming that no action had been taken.

“Based on further checks, the podcast content was a retelling of a guest’s journalism experience that occurred in 2016,” he said in a statement today.

Fadil said such publicity was unwarranted as it could create a negative public perception of the police and affect the force’s image and credibility.

He added that all parties must exercise greater care and responsibility when sharing or disseminating information to the public.

“The police are committed to continuously preserving integrity and public trust in the policing institution for the safety and well-being of the nation,” he said. — Bernama

2016 年发生在吉隆坡冼都一处宗教场所附近的一起贩毒案件，在一个爆红的播客节目中被详细讲述。

吉隆坡警察总长拿督法迪尔·马苏斯证实，2016 年 7 月 12 日，警方接到了三份关于此案的报告。

法迪尔表示，该播客的宣传毫无根据，并强调了谨慎传播信息以维护警察诚信和公众信任的重要性。

吉隆坡，10 月 19 日讯——@Sembangohhyeahh 播客中讲述的发生在冼都警区总部附近一处宗教场所的贩毒案件，可以追溯到 2016 年。

吉隆坡警察总长拿督法迪尔·马苏斯表示，2016 年 7 月 12 日，警方接到了三份与此案有关的报案。

法迪尔表示，他的部门发现了一段今天早上在网上疯传的播客视频。视频中，一名记者讲述了他卧底调查该地区毒品贩运活动的经历，并声称最终没有采取任何行动。

“根据进一步核实，该播客内容是对一位嘉宾在 2016 年经历的新闻从业经历的重述，”他今天在一份声明中说。

法迪尔表示，这种宣传毫无必要，因为它可能会造成公众对警察的负面看法，并影响警队的形象和信誉。

他还补充说，各方在向公众分享或传播信息时，都必须更加谨慎负责。

他说：“警方致力于持续维护警务机构的廉洁性和公众信任，以保障国家的安全和福祉。”——马新社
