PUTRAJAYA: Police have initiated an investigation into a documentary by news agency Al-Jazeera, which was deemed as derogatory, in its reporting of the Malaysian government's allegedly poor treatment of illegal immigrants in curbing Covid-19.

Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador said the probe was launched following police reports lodged against the international news outlet.

"It is the responsibility of the police to investigate whether there were seditious elements or any offences committed (in the report). It is still under investigation.

"We will call (the media) for questioning in the near future. We would see the (scope) of investigation, whether to be carried out under the Penal Code and the Sedition Act, after calling them in," he told reporters after the launch of the 2020 Malaysian Population and Housing Census, here, today.

He said the federal police Criminal Investigation Department (CID) director Datuk Huzir Mohamed would provide further details on the investigation.

This IGP is hopeless - He isn't even aware his mata-mata have called up participants of the youth-led Parlimen Digital, who Opposition leaders claimed of government intimidation against the mock parliament event. Yet he's pretty much on-the-ball when it comes to anything Senior Defence Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob complained about - that Al-Jazeera apologises to Malaysians for producing a documentary alleging racism and unequal treatment of illegal immigrants in its course of fighting the virus.

What's so important about the al Jazeera's kerbau which can be dealt with by both Wisma Putra and MCMC. Such a kerbau doesn't require police intervention.

Eff-er should retire with his 95-year old Boss.
