PETALING JAYA: Star Media Group Bhd, which owns The Star’s online portal, would like to alert the public to a fake image that claims Deputy Defence Minister Adly Zahari has resigned.

It has come to the company's attention that a picture, depicting a manipulated image which misuses The Star's identity, is making the rounds on social media.

The tampered image shows a lookalike website bearing the headline"Adly Zahari resigns as Deputy Minister".The writer, whose name was included in the image, confirmed that no such report was written.It is believed that Adly became the target of irresponsible postings, following the fiasco resulting from the resignation of Melaka Chief Minister Datuk Seri Sulaiman Md Ali.

Adly was also a former Melaka Chief Minister during the Pakatan Harapan administration that lasted from 2018 to 2020, before it collapsed due to defections by four state assemblymen previously aligned with the coalition. The public is urged to double check the authenticity of any such circulated images by visiting https://www.thestar.com.my and reading our verified news, straight from the source.
