According to the post, part of the trip's programme involved taking part in Christian rituals as shown in the photographs.

The programme also included the students performing Maghrib prayers and a dialogue session between both faiths.

The photographs, which went viral the past week, showed a group of people wearing the Muslim headscarves holding candles in a church.

One showed the group taking photographs with the church's priest.

The photographs were captioned "the ritual might have taken place somewhere in northern Malaysia, and the people involved were all students."

ACP Asmawati advised people not to upload or spread any unverified material on the social media as they could threaten the peace and safety of the public.
