Deputy Federal Territories Minister Edmund Santhara has claimed that hate speech and xenophobia messages targeting the Rohingya community on social media originate from netizens linked to a political party.

Santhara is chairing the Federal Territories Crisis Management Centre (CMC) looking into the 17,000 Rohingyas people under an enhanced movement control order in Selayang. This is what he said during an interview with Malaysiakini and KiniTV on Thursday.
