PN’s Ratu Naga refuses to cooperate with police, says IGP

Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain says the social media content provider refused to answer 33 questions posed to her.

Social media content provider Syarul Ema Rena Abu Samah was summoned by Bukit Aman’s classified crime investigation unit.
KUALA LUMPUR:
Social media content provider Syarul Ema Rena Abu Samah, also known as Ratu Naga, was at Bukit Aman today after being summoned regarding social media posts on Instagram and Tik Tok that were deemed to have defamed the prime minister’s wife Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail.

Perikatan Nasional’s Syarul Ema arrived with her lawyer Zaid Malek at 12.45pm and was quizzed by Bukit Aman’s classified crime investigation unit.

Meanwhile, Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain confirmed that Syarul Ema was in Bukit Aman today to have her statement recorded.

“(A total of) 33 questions were asked but she did not answer. Police also seized her handphone and SIM card,” he told Bernama when contacted.

Razarudin said police did not obtain any information related to the case because the suspect failed to cooperate and that the matter is being investigated under Section 249 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.

On Oct 22, Bandar Tun Razak PKR lodged a police report against three social media users for allegedly uploading a post that was deemed defamatory against Wan Azizah, who is also the Bandar Tun Razak MP.
