PETALING JAYA : Police have arrested a woman in a polyamorous marriage who allegedly threatened and shared nude photos of her husband's second wife.
According to Berita Harian, the Melaka magistrates' court allowed the police to remand the suspect for four days to assist in their investigation.
The woman's lawyer, Sheikh Ikhzan Sheikh Salleh, had opposed the remand order, arguing that this was merely a domestic case.
The case is being investigated under Section 507 of the Penal Code for criminal intimidation, and Section 509 for outraging a person's modesty.
A source said the 53-year-old woman was arrested at KLIA last night after returning from a holiday in Austria. She was wanted by police after the second wife – a 47-year-old teacher in Selangor – lodged a police report.
The source said the victim was informed by her father that the suspect – a mother of four – had sent him photos of her (the second wife) and her husband in the nude.
'Fearing that the nude photos would be spread and having been harassed by the suspect, the complainant filed a police report on March 27,' the source said.
Melaka Tengah police chief Christopher Patit confirmed the arrest, but declined to disclose details of the case.

‘Don't speculate', police caution as probe continues on body found in Bangsar lift shaft
KUALA LUMPUR, June 5 — Brickfields District Police Chief ACP Ku Mashariman Ku Mahmood confirmed that the last known location of the United Kingdom (UK) national, who was reported missing since May 27, was in Bangsar here. Following the missing person report filed by Jordan Michael John Johnson-Doyle's father at the Brickfields District Police Headquarters on June 2, Ku Mashariman said police have conducted a large-scale operation around the area. 'At 4pm today, we also conducted an operation with 30 personnel deployed to a construction site in Lorong Maarof, and at 5pm, a body was found. However, I want to emphasise that we have not yet been able to identify the body as the process (of identification) will take some time. 'The location where the body was found was quite secluded and in an area that was difficult to access. So, I urge all parties not to speculate whether it is related to the reported missing person or otherwise,' he told reporters when met at the scene today. A Bernama check at the scene found police teams from the Brickfields District Police Headquarters and Kuala Lumpur Police, as well as firefighters from the Pantai Fire and Rescue Station (BBP), at the location. The body, believed to be that of a foreign man, was found face down with his clothes almost off, in a lift shaft on the ground floor of the construction site. Ku Mashariman said the case has been classified as sudden death (SDR), while the cause of death is still under investigation. The body was brought out at around 9.30pm tonight and sent to the University Malaya Medical Centre (PPUM) for post-mortem and identification purposes. — Bernama

No need for Syura Council to vet candidates for top 2 posts, says Hashim
PAS spiritual leader Hashim Jasin said he was among the earliest to support the call for the party's top positions to continue being entrusted to individuals with religious backgrounds. PETALING JAYA : PAS spiritual leader Hashim Jasin has dismissed a call for the party's Syura Council to vet candidates for the president and deputy president's posts. Hashim said that in the current open contest system, those elected typically already have religious backgrounds, reflecting the preferences of PAS members. 'That's why it's not an issue. There's no need for the Syura Council to interfere or set a policy requiring the president and deputy to come strictly from among the ulama or religious scholars,' he told FMT. Hashim said he was among the earliest to support the call for these top positions to continue being entrusted to individuals with religious backgrounds. 'This matter isn't so crucial that the Syura Council needs to vet the candidates to ensure only religious scholars are selected. 'We leave the process as it is because members do not chase after positions in PAS,' he said, noting that there have been no individual candidate campaigns or factional clashes in the run-up to the party's elections in September. Earlier, PAS Dewan Ulama committee member Mokhtar Senik proposed that candidates for the party's top two posts be vetted by the Syura Council, PAS's highest decision-making body. He said this is to ensure that those who intend to challenge the positions currently held by Abdul Hadi Awang and Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man are qualified. Hadi and Tuan Ibrahim are both members of the Syura Council, which is chaired by Hashim. Speculation had emerged that, for the first time, the president and deputy president's posts might be contested at the upcoming party elections. FMT reported that this may happen if Hadi, who has served as president since 2002, steps down, as urged by some members, because of his health. At the same time, there are rumours that Tuan Ibrahim also intends to make way for new leadership, though there have been calls from the pro-ulama faction for him to defend the party's No 2 post. On May 22, PAS vice-president Amar Abdullah had called for the party's top leadership posts, especially those of the president and deputy president, to continue to be held by individuals with religious backgrounds to safeguard the party's Islamic foundation. 'I support that view,' Hashim said, stressing that it is important to ensure the party's policies remain rooted in religion.

Shahriman denies ‘blowing hot and cold' over collateral for Sapura tower
Shahriman Shamsuddin wants the High Court to wind up Sapura Holdings Sdn Bhd citing a breakdown of mutual trust with elder brother Shahril. KUALA LUMPUR : Sapura Holdings Sdn Bhd director Shahriman Shamsuddin today insisted he was not inconsistent as regards using the group's Sapura@Mines property as collateral to fund its business ventures. Testifying in his petition to wind up Sapura Holdings on grounds of a breakdown of mutual trust with elder brother Shahril, Shahriman said he had objected to using the property as collateral for the development of the group's flagship office tower. In his petition, Shahriman had claimed that his 'strained relationship' with Shahril had been 'exacerbated' by the differing opinions they voiced over Project Apex at a special board meeting of Sapura Resources Bhd (SRB) on Jan 31, 2023. Project Apex was the codename given by SRB for its joint venture with KLCC Holdings Sdn Bhd to develop Permata Sapura, a 52-storey office building in the KL city centre. Lawyer S Rabindra, representing Shahril, then referred Shahriman to the minutes of that meeting. Rabindra: At various board meetings and in relation to loan proposals that we've already gone through, you voiced strong concerns and protested the use of Sapura@Mines as collateral for Sapura Holdings' financial assistance, particularly for Permata. Correct? Shahriman: Yes, for Permata. Rabindra: Yet, at the board meeting on Jan 31, 2023, you were comfortable with Sapura Resources using Sapura@Mines as collateral for new projects. Is that correct? Shahriman: For other projects that were going to yield (returns). Rabindra: So there was a risk, according to you, that using Sapura@Mines as collateral for Permata could lead to a loss of the property, but here, you were quite happy to suggest using the same property for new ventures, despite the same risk. Correct? Shahriman: Not correct. Rabindra: But it is the same risk. There is still the possibility of losing the property. Shahriman: We know the negative risk of Permata. But there were other projects that we could have gone into. Rabindra: I suggest to you that you were blowing hot and cold with respect to the use of the Sapura@Mines property as collateral. Shahriman: I disagree. Shahriman also agreed that, in essence, he had wanted SRB to exit Project Apex, while Shahril wanted to remain in it. Rabindra: I'm suggesting to you that this was a difference of opinion between two directors of a public-listed company about what they see as being in the best interest of the company. Do you agree? Shahriman: Agree. That was a difference of opinion. Rabindra: And this was openly discussed at the Jan 31 board meeting. Correct? Shahriman: Yes. Rabindra: So it essentially came down to a commercial disagreement between two directors on a matter of business judgement based on what is best for SRB? Shahriman: On a matter of business judgement, a difference of opinion, yes. Sapura Holdings is the parent entity of over 40 subsidiaries valued at RM832 million, including the publicly-listed SRB. Both Shahril and Shahriman hold a 48% stake each in Sapura Holdings, with the remaining 4% owned by Rameli Musa. In the petition filed last September, Shahriman claims that an irreparable breakdown of mutual trust and confidence between him and Shahril necessitated the dissolution of Sapura Holdings. However, Sapura Holdings, Shahril and Rameli, all named as respondents, oppose the petition, contending that the company was never intended to be a family business and that dissolution would be neither just nor equitable. The hearing before Justice Leong Wai Hong continues.
