Hajiji: GRS chose unity govt after Borneo cooperation dismissed by past 'prominent leader'
KOTA KINABALU: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) chose to support the unity government after feeling disappointed with a 'prominent leader', said its chairman Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor. "I had an experience with Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun and Datuk Seri Jeffrey Kitingan when we met 'a prominent leader' in Kuala Lumpur. "That person said they were the 'master' and expressed dislike towards the idea of a 'Borneo Bloc'. "He also did not want us to share our experience and story with our neighbour, Sarawak. "I was shocked by those words. It took me some time to think about it and to understand what he meant. "I felt so disheartened by them. After much reflection, I decided that GRS should support the unity government," he said during his winding-up at Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah annual general assembly at the Sabah International Convention Centre here. Hajiji, who is also Gagasan president, clarified that the 'prominent leader' is not part of the unity government. The state chief minister said GRS would continue to support Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, as he had introduced many initiatives and upheld rights under the Malaysia Agreement 1963. "If the unity government is good for the state, why shouldn't we support it?" Commenting on his visit to Jakarta with Anwar tomorrow, he said the trip would include discussions with the Indonesian government on development matters related to the Sulawesi Sea. Hajiji also gave his assurance that the Sabah government would continue to pursue the state's entitlement to 40 per cent revenue, as enshrined in the Federal Constitution.

‘Completely naked': Spanish teen under investigation after 16 classmates say AI nudes of them posted online
MADRID, July 27 — Spanish police have opened an investigation into a 17-year-old student accused of using artificial intelligence to generate and sell deepfake nude images of female classmates. Authorities launched the probe after 16 girls from an educational institute in the Valencia region reported that manipulated sexual images of them had been circulated online and on social media. The case began in December when one student filed a complaint, saying that AI-generated photos and a video — showing her 'completely naked' — had been posted to a fake social media account created in her name. According to a police statement, investigators later traced the IP addresses behind the accounts to the suspect's home, leading to his identification. He is now being investigated for the offence of corruption of minors. This is not the first time Spanish authorities have uncovered AI-generated explicit content involving minors. In March, the government announced plans to introduce legislation that would criminalise the creation of non-consensual AI-generated sexual imagery. The proposed law — which Madrid says would be the first of its kind in Europe — has not yet been passed by parliament. — AFP
