Teacher accused of molesting disabled 16-year-old student
SEREMBAN, July 6 — A 16-year-old female student with an intellectual disability has alleged that a teacher molested her at a school in Rembau on May 5. Rembau police chief Supt Hasani Hussain said the student, who is enrolled in the Integrated Special Education Programme (PPKI), lodged a report at 5.15 pm yesterday, alleging she was molested by a 36-year-old male teacher around 10.40 am. Initial investigations revealed the incident occurred after the student had completed a cross-country run and was experiencing leg pain. 'According to the student, the teacher massaged her legs, starting from the soles of her feet to her calves and then to her thighs. During this, she felt the teacher had touched a sensitive area,' Hasani said in a statement today. He said the student initially confided in a friend and later informed another teacher about the incident on June 30. The suspect, detained around 10 pm last night, has denied the allegation. The case is still under investigation under Section 14(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017. — Bernama

Cop's fake MC habit exposes Sg Petani syndicate selling forged documents to civil servants for RM30 each
SUNGAI PETANI, July 6 —Police have arrested three men believed to be the masterminds behind the sale of fake medical certificates (MCs) in the district over the past two years. Kuala Muda district police chief ACP Hanyan Ramlan said the group's modus operandi involved issuing MCs without the need for any medical consultation or treatment. He said the case came to light during a probe into a breach of integrity involving a low-ranking police personnel who had frequently submitted MCs. 'This led to the discovery of the group selling fake MCs,' he told a press conference at the Kuala Muda district police headquarters here today. According to him, during a raid on a premises in Taman Songket Indah near here at 4.30 am on June 26, police seized various items, including about 20 fake MCs, tablets, rubber stamps bearing the names of doctors, A4-sized paper, a laptop and a printer. Hanyan said the three unemployed suspects, in their 30s and 40s, sold fake MCs for RM25 to RM30 a day, targeting civil servants as their primary 'customers'. He said the main suspect was found to be a heart patient currently receiving treatment at a hospital. 'During each hospital visit, the suspect would note down the attending doctor's name and later use it on rubber stamps. Most of the names belonged to actual doctors, but the job titles were inaccurate,' Hanyan said, adding that the case was being investigated under Section 468 of the Penal Code. — Bernama

SHAH ALAM, July 6 — The Selangor Islamic Religious Council (Mais) had revoked the teaching credentials of a preacher in 2022, who was recently arrested by police over suspected involvement in criminal activities. Mais chairman Datuk Salehuddin Saidin said the individual was previously detained by the Selangor Islamic Religious Department in September 2024 for preaching without valid credentials. 'It is an offence under Section 119 of the Administration of the Religion of Islam (State of Selangor) Enactment 2003, and the case is still being heard at the Syariah Subordinate Court. 'A surau administrator is also under investigation in the same case for allegedly facilitating the unauthorised lecture,' he said in a statement today. Yesterday, Shah Alam police chief ACP Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim said the police were investigating an independent preacher for allegedly disseminating sex videos involving his wives and several other women. Salehuddin said that since 2022, Mais had revoked the accreditation of 35 individuals for breaching set conditions, including delivering teachings that deviated from the Ahli Sunnah Wal Jamaah creed, committing criminal offences and holding political positions. 'Several others have had their teaching credentials suspended pending investigations in accordance with relevant laws,' he added. He emphasised that all policies and decisions by the religious authorities are made with due diligence and have received the consent of the Sultan of Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah as the Head of Islam in the state. 'These measures are intended to protect the interests of the Muslim community in Selangor,' he said. — Bernama
