Kota bharu: The Kelantan government has confirmed that there have been no illegal gold sales on state-owned land, so far. Kelantan Deputy Menteri Besar Datuk Mohamed Fadzli Hassan stated that reports received by the government were primarily opinions posted on social media by certain individuals.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Mohamed Fadzli mentioned that after examining these reports, it was determined that there were no violations or illegal gold sales. He noted that although the reports were mostly opinions, the government continues to study and scrutinize the issues raised while awaiting a comprehensive report.
