ALOR SETAR, Oct 28 — Police have arrested a 50-year-old local man in connection with an investigation into a caricature allegedly insulting the police that went viral on social media.
In a statement today, Kedah police chief Datuk Adzli Abu Shah said the 50-year-old self-employed man was detained outside Menara Seri Wilayah P2a in Putrajaya yesterday.
He said police received a report on Oct 25 concerning a post uploaded by the owner of a Facebook account.
