6 expelled from MRSM in Melaka over bullying case
Mara chairman Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said bullying will not be tolerated for any reason. (File pic) KUALA BERANG : Six students of a Maktab Rendah Sains Mara (MRSM) in Melaka have been expelled with immediate effect after they were found to be involved in a bullying incident on July 18. Majlis Amanah Rakyat (Mara) chairman Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said the decision followed a disciplinary committee meeting and an investigation that confirmed the students' involvement. He said no appeals will be entertained to ensure the action serves as a lesson to others. 'Mara will not compromise on bullying for any reason. No excuse can justify such behaviour. How severe the bullying comes second. If you touch (bully), you go,' he said after attending the Hulu Terengganu Umno division meeting in Jenagor here today. Asyraf said he had received numerous social media alerts about the incident since July 19 and immediately ordered Mara's management to submit a report, which confirmed the case.

Cops nab suspected robber of female food deliverers
JERTIH: Police have successfully solved three robbery cases that occurred in several villages in the Besut district after arresting a man in a raid in Kampung Gong Medang here on Monday (July 21). Besut district police chief Supt Azamuddin Ahmad @ Abu said the 32-year-old suspect, who was suspected of being involved in knife-wielding robberies since last month, was arrested by the Criminal Investigation Division of the Besut police headquarters. "The suspect was arrested following three robberies involving three female victims, all of whom were food deliverers between June 24 and July 20. "The suspect's modus operandi was to identify female vendors who provided delivery service and would give addresses at unoccupied houses in remote areas in Kampung Gong Medang and Kampung Tembila," he told a press conference here on Sunday. Azamuddin said when the victim arrived at the given location, the suspect would approach the victim's car and brandish a knife before robbing the victim's jewellery. He added, the suspect managed to rob the jewellery belonging to the first and second victims, involving an estimated loss of RM30,000 and RM200 in cash. "However, the suspect failed to rob the third victim because the victim resisted, causing the victim to suffer injuries to both hands," he said. Azamuddin said following the arrest, the police also managed to seize two melted gold bars weighing 82.26gm believed to belong to two victims, a Honda City and two mobile phones belonging to the suspect. He added that checks found that the suspect had a criminal record related to robbery and tested negative for drugs. He said the suspect, who is married, was remanded to assist in the investigation under Section 392/397 of the Penal Code and Section 394 of the same act. - Bernama
