ACTRESS Zarina Anjoulie ( pic ) has denied allegations that she stole a luxury car.
Zarina said she lodged a police report over the ownership of the vehicle, reported Kosmo! Online.
'I initially chose to remain silent following the accusation of stealing and hiding a luxury car.
'However, since many people have asked me about a video that has gone viral on TikTok, I want to clarify that the accusations are completely untrue,' she said.
Zarina, referring to the allegations made by an individual on TikTok, said the car was provided to her as collateral because the said person had not yet resolved a compensation case.
However, this was not mentioned, added Zarina.
'I have all the evidence,' she said in a video posted on TikTok.
Zarina also filed an additional police report concerning trespassing and alleged defamatory statements.
'She knows exactly why the car is with me. 'It was a mutual agreement based on unresolved issues between us,' Zarina added.
She also expressed regret that her family had to endure difficulties due to the person's actions.
She claimed that the individual allegedly invaded her family's privacy by livestreaming outside her mother's home and acted in a rude manner.
The actress has hired a lawyer to pursue legal action against the individual.

‘Immoral' online shop sparks social concerns

Compiled by RAHIMY RAHIM, C. ARUNO and R. ARAVINTHAN THE sale of soiled women's undergarments on an online shopping platform has sparked worry about the declining social prac­tices in Malaysia, China Press reported. A resident in Melaka alerted the daily about an online shop selling panties and pantyhose marketed as undergarments with the 'original' scent of a woman or female college ­student. The daily found that the shop had even uploaded photos of the supposed owners of the items, albeit with their faces blurred out. One of the reasons given for selling their underwear was to help support their studies and living expenses. Records on the shopping platform showed that there were 11 purchases of the used pantyhose. Kota Laksamana assemblyman Low Chee Leong described such a business as immoral and that it may normalise the behaviour of individuals with such fetishes. 'In the past, there have been many cases in Melaka where undergarments, being let out to dry, were stolen. 'Now, they can just buy them via online shopping. It is indeed worrisome,' he said. > Netizens are furious with a 30-year-old man who jumped over barriers at the Terracotta Warriors Museum in Xi'an, des­troy­ing two priceless artefacts which were over 2,000 years old, the same daily reported. 'If this continues, I'm afraid we won't get to appreciate the Terra­cotta Warriors anymore in the future,' someone wrote. Some of the Internet users even called for the man to be beaten up. Others, however, blamed the museum for being lax with security. During the May 30 incident, the man had pushed two of the statu­es, causing them to fall and break apart. Xi'an police later released a statement, saying that the man was mentally ill and had been arrested.

Man convicted of cyberbullying now accused of extortion, harassment

KUALA LUMPUR: A man, previously convicted in a cyberbullying case linked to the death of a social media influencer, is now accused of harassing and extorting a 28-year-old disabled woman, just two months after his release from prison. The man was sentenced to 12 months in jail in Sept last year after pleading guilty to cyberbullying A. Rajeswary, better known as "Esha", who was found dead in July 2024 following months of online harassment. He was released from prison in March this year. The latest accusation against him came from a visually impaired woman from Bestari Jaya, who claimed she had engaged a TikTok influencer to help recover RM6,000 from her ex-boyfriend. In a police report sighted by the New Straits Times, the victim, identified as Thiviah, claimed that the influencer had introduced her to the suspect, who offered to 'mediate' the issue in exchange for a monetary reward. On May 27, the suspect allegedly hosted a live TikTok broadcast, during which he confronted the victim's ex-boyfriend online and demanded he repay the sum. Thiviah claimed that after the live session ended, the suspect contacted her and asked for RM3,000 as payment. She claimed that while she had agreed to give him a token sum beforehand, the amount was never discussed. When she said she could not pay the amount as she was her family's sole breadwinner, he told he to pay him RM500 first and to settle the rest later. She however maintained she could not afford the amount. Thiviah, in her report, claimed that the suspect then began harassing her. She claimed that on May 28, the suspect rang her and threatened to release her personal details and photographs if he did not pay him the RM3,000. She also claimed that he coerced her into a live TikTok session with him, where she was allegedly subjected to slurs and insults over her physical appearance and disability. Speaking to the NST, Thiviah claimed she was subjected to bullying. "I am partially blind. For someone like me to be bullied and threatened so aggressively — it was completely unacceptable. "I am thankful my parents are not on social media. The words he used on me were deeply degrading and abusive. "Just because I couldn't pay him for 'mediating' and getting my money back from my ex, he said so many nasty things, which were all untrue," she claimed. Thiviah has since lodged a report at the Sentul police headquarters, citing fear for her safety and concern that her images could be misused online. Meanwhile, Sentul district police chief Assistant Commissioner Sukarno Mohd Zahari when contacted today, said the case is under police investigation. "We are tracking down the suspect to facilitate investigations," he said. Sukarno said police have opened an investigation under Section 509 of the Penal Code for insulting a person's modesty.
