Girl claims man deceived her into sending nude photos via Telegram
IPOH : Police are investigating two reports involving a 15-year-old girl who was deceived into sending nude photographs to an individual posing as a medical doctor via the Telegram messaging application.
Manjung district police chief Hasbullah Abd Rahman said preliminary investigations revealed that the girl had submitted several nude images after being misled by the suspect.
He said the suspect is believed to have contacted the victim through Telegram and introduced himself as a doctor conducting remote health screenings.
'She was asked to provide personal and family details, along with several nude photographs, allegedly for cervical and breast cancer screening purposes.
'She was told that only the photographs were required and that no physical examination was necessary. The victim later realised she had been deceived and lodged a police report out of concern that the images might be leaked,' Hasbullah said in a statement today.
He said an investigation paper has been opened, and the case is being investigated under Section 15(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017.
Members of the public with information related to the case are urged to contact investigating officer Nur Munawarah at 011-1624 0391, the Manjung district police headquarters (IPD) at 05-688 6222, or the police WhatsApp hotline at 017-682 8005 to assist with the investigation.
Hasbullah also advised parents and the community to stay vigilant and be better informed about current issues involving sexual crimes against children.
He also advised against sharing personal information with unknown individuals, especially online.
'The public is also advised to activate the two-step verification security feature on the Telegram application as a measure to protect social media accounts and messaging platforms,' he added.

‘Completely naked': Spanish teen under investigation after 16 classmates say AI nudes of them posted online
MADRID, July 27 — Spanish police have opened an investigation into a 17-year-old student accused of using artificial intelligence to generate and sell deepfake nude images of female classmates. Authorities launched the probe after 16 girls from an educational institute in the Valencia region reported that manipulated sexual images of them had been circulated online and on social media. The case began in December when one student filed a complaint, saying that AI-generated photos and a video — showing her 'completely naked' — had been posted to a fake social media account created in her name. According to a police statement, investigators later traced the IP addresses behind the accounts to the suspect's home, leading to his identification. He is now being investigated for the offence of corruption of minors. This is not the first time Spanish authorities have uncovered AI-generated explicit content involving minors. In March, the government announced plans to introduce legislation that would criminalise the creation of non-consensual AI-generated sexual imagery. The proposed law — which Madrid says would be the first of its kind in Europe — has not yet been passed by parliament. — AFP
