He said the Bukit Aman CID Special Investigations Unit was conducting investigations for sedition and for sharing offensive and threatening content.
“In addition to the two arrests in Lahad Datu, cooperation between the police here and our counterparts in Indonesia led to the arrest of an Indonesian student at around 8 pm on December 31 at a home in Cianjur, West Java, Indonesia.
“The student is believed to have participated in the creation of the altered handwriting video,” he said, adding that a mobile phone, SIM card and computer believed to have been used to edit and disseminate the video were seized.
He said the identity of the suspect has not yet been released.
“We urge the public to be smart users of social media and not use these platforms to cause anxiety and threaten national harmony.
“Severe measures can be taken without compromise against any individual who intentionally tries to create an inharmonious situation that could lead to tensions and provocations between the two countries,” he said.
