Investigation paper on Raub MP, Samka chairman submitted to federal police
KUANTAN: The investigation paper involving Raub member of Parliament Chow Yu Hui and Save Musang King Alliance (Samka) chairman Wilson Chang has been submitted to the federal police legal department for further action.
The duo are accused of obstructing public servants from carrying out their duties during the Op Sekat enforcement operation in Kampung Sungai Chalit, Raub, on April 10.
Pahang police chief Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman said the investigation papers were forwarded to federal police last week.
"The federal police legal team is currently reviewing the papers for further action. We will await their feedback before submitting them to the deputy public prosecutor's office," he told reporters at the police logistics complex in Alor Akar today.
Earlier, Yahaya met with some 145 scrap material traders from across Pahang during a high-profile policing programme aimed at raising awareness about the possession and sale of telecommunications cables or equipment.
On April 25, Yahaya said police were finalising investigations under Section 186 of the Penal Code. If convicted, the offence carries a maximum penalty of two years' imprisonment, a fine of up to RM10,000, or both.
On April 15, he confirmed that Chow and Chang had been called in for questioning after allegedly preventing civil servants from executing their duties during an enforcement operation against unlicensed durian farms in Kampung Sungai Chalit, Raub.

Ranau civil servant loses RM13,000 in phone scam
RANAU (June 11): A civil servant in her 30s lost RM13,000 after falling victim to a phone scam involving individuals posing as a police officer and a representative from the Ministry of Communications and Digital. Ranau district police chief Superintendent Mursalin Mahmud said the victim received a phone call from an unknown number on May 27. The caller claimed to be from the ministry and alleged that the victim's phone number was being used to spread fake messages related to investments, job offers and gambling. The call was then redirected to another individual who claimed to be a police officer from the Perak Police Contingent Headquarters (IPK). On May 29, the victim was instructed to transfer RM13,000 into an account under the name Muhammad Azlan, allegedly for the purpose of 'account protection.' 'The scammers also demanded that the victim send photos and personal information every three hours as a form of self-reporting,' Mursalin said. After realising she had been scammed, the victim lodged a police report at the Ranau police station on June 10. The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for fraud. 'I urge the public not to panic if they receive suspicious calls from individuals claiming to be police officers or representatives of government agencies,' Mursalin advised. 'Do not disclose personal information such as bank account details or identification documents, and never carry out financial transactions based solely on phone instructions.' He also reminded the public to verify any such calls with the nearest police station or district police headquarters and remain alert to the tactics used by fraud syndicates to avoid becoming victims.

TAWAU: The High Court today postponed to July 23 its decision on the case involving 13 male students of Kolej Vokasional Lahad Datu, who are jointly charged with the murder of their college mate Mohamad Nazmie Aizzat Mohd Narul Azwan, last year. The verdict, initially scheduled for today, was postponed to allow for clarification related to the submissions, according to deputy public prosecutor, Nur Nisla Abdul Latif. She said that both prosecution and defence had filed their written submissions. The prosecution had filed a total of 366 pages of written submission. 'The defence team, comprising eight lawyers, has also filed their submissions,' she told reporters at the High Court, here, today. On May 14, High Court Judge Datuk Duncan Sikodol had set today to decide on the Mohamad Nazmie Aizzat murder case. However, a notice issued by the High Court yesterday (June 10) informed parties of the rescheduling. On Feb 28, Duncan ordered the 13 teenagers, aged 16 to 19, to enter their defence on the charge of murdering Mohamad Nazmie Aizzat, 17, in the dormitory rooms 7 Resak and 5 Belian at the Lahad Datu Vocational College, between 9pm on March 21 and 7.38am on March 22, 2024. They were charged under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder, read together with Section 34 of the same Code which carries the death penalty, or up to 40 years' imprisonment and not more than 12 strokes of the cane, if convicted. The defence proceedings began on March 10, with 18 witnesses, including all 13 accused, called to testify. The prosecution had earlier opened its case on Nov 19 last year, calling 25 witnesses, including students and teachers from the vocational college. Apart from Nur Nisla, the prosecution team also includes DPPs Ng Juhn Tao and Batrisyia Mohd Khusri. Eight of the students were represented by lawyers Datuk Ram Singh, Kamarudin Mohmad Chinki and Chen Wen Jye, while five others were represented by lawyers Mohamed Zairi Zainal Abidin, Abdul Ghani Zelika, Vivian Thien, Jhesseny P.
