Police tracking down 4 people for allegedly mocking the disabled


POLICE are tracking down two women and two men for allegedly filming two separate videos mocking the disabled, which went viral yesterday.

Sentul district police chief Beh Eng Lai said this followed a police report lodged by a woman over their actions in the video, which were also said to have abused disabled facilities.

He said the first video uploaded featured two men posing as disabled persons and mocked the disabled car park facility at a shopping mall in the capital.

“Another video shows two women abusing toilets for the disabled at a petrol station. They also acted as if they were physically disabled,” he said in a statement yesterday.

Beh said the complainant who lodged the police report felt all four had clearly insulted the disabled in the country, and without any guilt, used the target group as material to attract viewers on social media.

He said the case was classified under section 504 of the penal code and section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 for intentional insult and misusing social media facilities.

Earlier today, OKU Sentral president Senator Ras Adiba Radzi lodged a police report against several individuals who misused the facilities reserved for the disabled. – Bernama, December 10, 2021.
