Johor police chief Comm Datuk Kamarul Zaman Mamat has denied a claim made in a viral TikTok video that a bridge in the state has recently collapsed.

We confirmed that the incident did not happen in Johor but in a foreign country,” said Comm Kamarul Zaman.
“We advise the public not to spread fake news or messages that can cause fear and unrest to the public,” he added. Comm Kamarul Zaman added that police can take action against any individuals that were found to spread fake news.
