In recent days, images of a traffic police officer have been circulating on the internet with the content: "Stop the vehicle in the emergency lane on the highway to go to the toilet: not an unstoppable situation, the traffic police still issue fines".
Many accounts, pages, Facebook groups, Tiktok with many followers have shared the above information, attracting many conflicting opinions. Many bad guys have taken advantage of this to attack and distort, affecting the reputation of the police force and individual officers who have been illegally image-used.
Regarding the above content, the Traffic Police Department - Ministry of Public Security affirmed that this is edited, fabricated, and untrue.
Regarding the above incident, on March 23 and 24, the Department of Cyber Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention - Ministry of Public Security worked with a number of owners of the page, channel, and group system with millions of members and followers to clarify the act of spreading false information about the statements of the police force.
Currently, this unit is continuing to expand verification and handle similar cases.
The Department of Cyber Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention recommends that the online community do not join hands to share and disseminate false information, causing public outrage.
At the same time, people, especially KOLs, admins of social networking sites, channels, and groups, do not post content that violates the law.
