“PDRM requests all parties not to make any speculations and provocations to ensure that this case can be investigated transparently.”

“The public is also advised not to make any distribution of material that could affect the police investigation.”

The statement also said that the case is being investigated under Section 509 of the Penal Code, Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955 and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.

Meanwhile, Ebit Lew said that he is not phased by the incident and will continue to serve the community when met outside the Bukit Aman compound at 2pm.

“I forgive anyone for what happened (sexual harassment slander). People out there may judge for themselves,” he said, reported Harian Metro.

“I was called to assist in the investigation into the allegations out there. I leave it to the police completely.”
