Social media influencer and actress Mek Yun, who discovered her old school photos were shared in the group, has joined Caprice in demanding speedy action.
Caprice took to Instagram to reveal the existence of a Facebook group named 'Group Budak2 Sekolah Rendah,' where members share indecent content involving school children, particularly girls in uniform.
Caprice stated that the group, which has now surpassed 12,000 members, openly features inappropriate comments and lewd discussions by adult men, including senior citizens.
'Admin, surrender yourself at the police station within 48 hours. If you do, I won't expose the faces of the group members, including the admin. Don't think we can't trace you...' Caprice posted in a recent Instagram Story.
His investigations also revealed that the Facebook group has been active for over a decade and was run by two individuals: a man and a woman.
Even more disturbing, the group was set to 'public,' making the vile content accessible to anyone online.
Caprice confirmed he had lodged a report with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and had also tagged the police force as well as the Minister of Communications, Fahmi Fadzil, for further action.
'I've reported it to @skmm_mcmc @fahmifadzil. God willing they will act quickly. The admin should just surrender at the police station as soon as possible. If the authorities come to your doorstep, it's going to be a big problem,' he shared in his Instagram Story.
Many of the posts featured graphic language and deeply concerning remarks, with members making sexually suggestive comments on photos of schoolgirls.
Mek Yun was among the individuals whose old school photos were found in the group.
In a strong response posted on her Instagram account, Mek Yun called on fellow Malaysians to take immediate action on the criminally dangerous group.
'Let's all tag @pdrmsia_official @skmm_mcmc and YB @fahmifadzil.1 together.
'I'm also asking everyone to share this video and report the 'Budak2 Sek Rendah' group on Facebook. Let's destroy this group. Don't give them any chance at all to do what they want. Because this should NEVER be normalised,' her post read.
Mek Yun also spoke about society's moral responsibility to protect children from such exploitation.
'Who else is going to protect those kids and our children if not us?' she asked.
Public reaction has been swift and fierce, with social media users flooding the comments sections on Caprice's and Mek Yun's posts to express disgust, support and determination to see justice served.
Many rallied around the noble actions of those who brought the issue to light.
'The older one gets, the closer they should be to God, not chasing lust like mad,' a commenter posted.
'Good job Caprice, fast action on this issue. Serves those old perverts right,' a comment read on Caprice's Instagram post.
'If all you think about is what's below the waist, how are you different from an animal?' an enraged comment read.
Despite the overwhelming backlash and exposure, no official statement has been issued by the police or relevant authorities on follow-up action at the time of press.
The public continues to tag official bodies, demanding that legal action be taken against the administrators and members of the group.

KUALA TERENGGANU: A bank officer has been left devastated after losing RM241,700, including his Employees Provident Fund (EPF) savings, in an online vehicle purchase scam. Kuala Terengganu OCPD Asst Comm Azli Mohd Noor said the 52-year-old victim came across an advertisement for a used four-wheel-drive vehicle on Facebook on July 4. Interested in the offer, the victim clicked on the link and began communicating with the purported seller via WhatsApp, he said.

Operators reminded to uphold professionalism amid Semporna slapping probe
KOTA KINABALU: Tourism players must maintain professionalism and treat guests with respect, says the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry in the wake of a viral slapping incident between a diving instructor and a foreign tourist in Semporna. Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing said the case was now under formal investigation, with the instructor already arrested. 'Let me remind all operators to uphold professionalism and treat guests with respect. Violence, insults, or intimidation are unacceptable except in clear cases of self-defence. If faced with rude behaviour, respond calmly and try to resolve issues peacefully,' he said in a statement shared on his official Facebook page, on Saturday (July 26). He was commenting on the widely circulated video of the July 23 incident in Semporna, where a local diving instructor was seen slapping and threatening a foreign tourist following a dispute over a dropped oxygen tank. 'All relevant enforcement agencies will work closely to uncover the full story and ensure the process is legal, fair, and transparent,' Tiong said. Initial findings indicated that the altercation began when a compressed air tank was wrongly placed on the boat deck and accidentally dropped, injuring the instructor's foot. This led to a verbal dispute, which escalated into a physical confrontation. 'I want to stress that if either party is found to have acted wrongly or broken the law, action must be taken accordingly, with no favouritism,' Tiong said. He also warned that the ministry will take firm action against the misuse of licences, including dive permits, tour guide credentials, and travel agency approvals. 'We will take firm action against the misuse of licences, including dive permits, tour guide credentials, and travel agency approvals. Travel agencies must use their own licensed vessels, and violations will not be tolerated,' he said. Tiong reminded all tourism operators to comply with safety and operational guidelines strictly, and urged tourists to follow instructions from certified guides to avoid putting themselves or others at risk. With Visit Malaysia Year 2026 approaching, he said all tourism stakeholders must work together to protect the country's image. 'We each have a role to play in ensuring Malaysia remains a globally known friendly destination. Let's help every visitor better understand and respect our laws, culture, and norms,' he added.
