He left the station after giving his statement at about 6.45pm.

Yesterday, Yusoff said police had launched an investigation into a viral video showing a man mocking policemen stationed at a roadblock set up to intercept a motorcycle convoy heading to the airport.

He said the video featured an individual making remarks that ridiculed and belittled officers on duty.

Yusoff described the remarks as irresponsible and provocative, noting that they could damage the image, reputation and credibility of the force.

The case is being investigated under Section 504 of the Penal Code for intentional insult with intent to provoke a breach of the peace, Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act for improper use of network facilities, and Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act for insulting behaviour.
