Three men fined RM11,000 for possessing obscene content in Kelantan

KOTA BARU: Three men, including two students from tertiary education institutions, were fined a total of RM11,000 by the magistrate's court here today for possessing obscene images and videos during a raid at a house in Kemumin last month.
Mohd Hanafi Ibrahim, 47, was fined RM3,000, while Muhammad Al Azamuddin Al Fadzil, 22, and Mohamad Syahmi Firas Mohd Jurij, 27, were each fined RM4,000 after pleading guilty before Magistrate Wan Mohd Izzat Wan Abdullah.
According to separate charges read out to them, all three were accused of possessing obscene images and videos on their respective mobile phones.
They pleaded guilty to committing the offence at a house on Jalan Kemumin, Kampung Pulau Belacan, Panchor, here at 1.15am on June 18.
They were charged under Section 292 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum sentence of three years' imprisonment, a fine, or both, upon conviction.
Deputy public prosecutors Muhammad Nadzir Abdullah and Nur Haziqah Hassan prosecuted the case, while all three accused were represented by lawyer Samantha Chong Yin Xin.
Earlier, Muhammad Nadzir and Nur Haziqah urged the court to impose a sentence that would serve as a deterrent to the public.
Samantha, however, pleaded for leniency, requesting the minimum fine as her clients had repented and promised to change.
"Mohd Hanafi suffers from a brain condition and underwent head surgery in 2016. He is now dependent on his sister for support.
"Muhammad Al Azamuddin is a first-year university student, while Mohamad Syahmi Firas is a final-year polytechnic student.
"They have all promised not to repeat this offence. Their families have also vowed to guide them onto the right path from now on," she said.
Failure to pay the fine will result in a six-month jail term.
It was previously reported that police raided a gathering at a bungalow on Jalan Kemumin, believed to have been attended by nearly 100 men.
The raid, conducted based on intelligence and public information, led to the arrest of 20 men and the seizure of hundreds of condoms and HIV medication.

Police dismantle ‘Susu Borneo' syndicate stealing baby milk in three states

MELAKA: Police have dismantled a theft syndicate known as 'Susu Borneo' with the arrest of four members, including a woman, for stealing infant formula and powdered coffee worth RM12,600. The suspects were apprehended at a rented condominium in Kuala Lumpur in the early hours of Aug 10 following reports of thefts in Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, and Pahang. Melaka Tengah Police chief ACP Christopher Patit confirmed the arrests involved a 50-year-old woman and three men aged between 23 and 33. The syndicate's thefts were reported at two mini markets in Taman Paya Emas and Bandar Baru Sungai Udang on Aug 2. Christopher stated that intelligence led the Criminal Investigation Department (D4) team to track down the suspects, including a Filipino man and woman. Police recovered stolen formula milk at the condominium and inside a car during the operation. Seized items included 72 boxes and 15 packets of infant formula, 12 tins of health milk, and 22 packets of coffee drinks. Authorities also confiscated a car, four mobile phones, clothing, hats, and tools believed to be used in the thefts. The syndicate disguised themselves as customers, with the female suspect hiding stolen items in her clothes while male accomplices acted as lookouts. Investigations revealed the Sabah-based syndicate had been active since 2011 and committed 12 thefts in the week before their arrest. Three suspects had prior criminal records involving drug offences, theft, and causing injury. All four suspects have been remanded until Aug 15 for further investigation under Section 380 of the Penal Code for theft. - Bernama
