Malaysian police have been forced to dismiss claims that they doctored photographs of two Iranians who boarded a missing airliner with stolen passports - saying one man's legs were spliced over the other's in a photocopying error.

Social media users who saw the photos suggested they may have been intentionally doctored.


"Why did they try to photoshop the legs on the released photo of the Iranians?'' one user asked.

"Photoshop failed! same legs on those pics. are they for real??'' another posted.

But police spokeswoman Asmawati Ahmad said the odd appearance of the photos stemmed from a police staff member placing one on top of the other when photocopying them.

"It was not done with malice or to mislead,'' she said.
