Kuala Krai police chief Supt Abdullah Roning said no report was lodged over the alleged UFO sighting.
“The video was circulated by certain parties,” he said when contacted here last night.
The one minute and 25 second video was falsely attributed as being produced by the Malaysian National News Agency (Bernama).
According to the video, Kuala Krai residents were reportedly shocked by the UFO that was spotted near the Cembong Batu Nang Centre.
Villagers claimed to have seen the UFO for several minutes before the object disappeared.
