KUALA LUMPUR: Bersatu has lodged reports with the police, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and Meta following the alleged unauthorised takeover of its official Facebook page on Thursday (Feb 12) afternoon. Party information chief Datuk Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz said the reports were made to ensure immediate action is taken by the authorities. He said several administrators were removed from the page following the hijacking, after which a series of posts attacking the party and its leadership were published. “The content uploaded is unauthorised, does not represent the party’s official stance and was posted without the consent of Bersatu leadership,” he said in a statement on his Facebook page on Saturday (Feb 14). “Bersatu is taking all necessary steps to regain full control of its official page and to strengthen the party’s digital security,” he added.
