The police have found no criminal elements following an investigation into a leaked audio clip linked to Wisma Putra.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Azmi Abu Kassim said the department had handed over the case to the foreign ministry for an internal investigation.

He was asked to comment on the matter during a press conference at the Kuala Lumpur contingent police headquarters today.

The voice recording by a man purportedly sent to a woman with a “Datin” title regarding the ministry recently went viral on social media.

Meanwhile, when asked to comment on the PASLeaks issue, Azmi said the police would not be calling the politicians named in the document as the investigation paper had just been opened to determine whether there was any wrongdoing involved.

Azmi said they would call several other individuals to assist in the investigation, including the complainant.

Last Friday, PAS vice-president Idris Ahmad described the spreading of the document alleged to be the minutes of a party meeting as an attempt to cause friction among the Malay parties.
