A Penang state executive councillor today lodged a police report denying his alleged involvement in an "indecent" programme in Batu Feringghi near here.

Northeast district police chief ACP Anuar Omar said State Tourism Development and Culture Committee chairman Danny Law Heng Kiang in his report alleged he was completely unaware of the programme.

"The exco came to know about the matter when he was at the Jelutong market after an unidentified man passed him a sheet of paper and when he was in the house, he examined the paper which was related to a 'Masturbation Month' programme," Anuar said in Penang today.

It was learned the programme which would allegedly be held at a hotel with the cooperation of Penang Tourism had been uploaded on Facebook.

Anuar said police were tracking down the social site account owner to facilitate investigations.

Earlier, a hotel in Batu Feringghi also lodged a police report to deny its alleged involvement in the programme after a banner about the festival had displayed the hotel's name.
