Why do the two men have the same legs from the waist down?
According to this article on Huffpost, the release of a digitally-altered photo was an oversight.

Malaysian police released photos of the men with identical legs, which turned out to be digitally manipulated. Police said this was an oversight and was not done to mislead.

This one isn't quite as obvious, until you see the issues, and then you can't un-see them:

Freaky Photoshop disaster: Jay Carney puff piece goes hilariously wrong [pics] - Twitchy.com

Look at the top row of books. You'll see a red-covered book that will be your key to seeing where it was duplicated, along with others next to it. Then, go to the next row, and you'll see duplicated books again, on the left and the right, including the kid's pinky finger from the left over on the right, just floating there. It just keeps going from there, so someone obviously took a portrait photo and stretched it by filling in and flipping other portions of the image. Either that, or the rest of the bookshelf on each side was unacceptable or uninteresting.

How can this be an oversight? One doesn't just accidentally put fake legs on people. Ha ha oops I accidentally Photoshopped some legs on this guy as I was attaching the image to the e-mail! It happens! No, someone put effort into that. While I believe it was not intended to mislead, it was actually made for some reason. Why? Why did someone do that and why did the police or whoever get a hold of that image?

Although it is a photoshop fail, turns out not to be as big a fail as has been suggested (i.e.: they didn't photoshop his head onto someone else's body). His hand is in the shadows. Oh well, fun while it lasted [Wink]
