Kuala lumpur: Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor today denied what she described as 'grave, false, and defamatory allegations' in a series of viral videos directed against her and her family, and said she had lodged a police report.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, Rosmah stated that she denied in the clearest and most unequivocal terms each and every one of the allegations contained in the videos circulating across social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook. Rosmah also confirmed she had lodged a formal police report today in view of the gravity and seriousness of the matter, adding that she is extending her full cooperation to the authorities and remains firmly committed to doing so.
She explained that the report was for the authorities to conduct a thorough and complete investigation into the individuals, related parties, and accounts responsible for the creation and dissemination of the false, malicious, and defamatory material. 'I further demand, in the strongest possible terms, that the operators of all relevant social media platforms take immediate and decisive steps to remove, disable, and prevent any further circulation of these false and defamatory materials,' she said.
Rosmah, the wife of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, also called upon the public and the media to act with responsibility and restraint, to refrain from amplifying unverified, false and defamatory content, and to allow the authorities to conduct their investigations without interference or influence, in accordance with the due process of law.
She stressed that at no time had she been involved, whether directly or indirectly, in the purchase, financing, transfer, or ownership of any luxury property, including any property alleged to be valued at USD13 million, nor had she financed, facilitated, or in any manner whatsoever arranged any such transaction on behalf of her son-in-law or any other individual or entity. 'The allegations purporting to implicate me in the use of shell companies, offshore financial structures, or associations with any of the individuals or entities named in these videos are wholly without foundation, utterly false, and maliciously fabricated,' she added.
Rosmah further stated that the publication and dissemination of these allegations constitute, in the clearest sense, acts of defamation and malicious falsehood. She described the contents as misleading, deeply irresponsible, and plainly designed to deceive the public, to undermine confidence in lawful processes and to cause grave and irreparable harm to her reputation and that of her family. 'This statement is issued strictly without prejudice to all my rights and remedies at law, which are expressly reserved in their entirety,' Rosmah said.
