Pahang cops completing investigation into Raub MP, Samka advisor

KUANTAN: Police are wrapping up investigations into an incident involving Raub member of Parliament Chow Yu Hui and Save Musang King Alliance (Samka) chairman Wilson Chang, who are accused of obstructing public servants from performing their duties in Raub on April 10.
Last year, Chow was also investigated for a similar offence alongside 19 others. However, the case was later classified as "No Further Action" (NFA).
Pahang police chief Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman said that the investigation papers will soon be submitted to the deputy public prosecutor's (DPP) office.
"They were detained overnight at the Raub police headquarters on April 14 to assist with investigations and were released the following day. We have also recorded statements from several other individuals.
"The investigation papers are still with the investigating officer, and we are finalising the details before handing them over to the DPP's office," he said when contacted today.
He said the case is being investigated under Section 186 of the Penal Code. If convicted, the individuals could face up to two years in prison, a fine of up to RM10,000, or both.
On April 15, Yahaya confirmed that Chow and Chang had been summoned for questioning following a police report lodged by the Pahang Enforcement Unit (UPNP) elite team at 3.35pm on April 10.
The duo were allegedly involved in preventing civil servants from carrying out their duties during the Op Sekat enforcement operation against unlicensed durian farms in Kampung Sungai Chalit, Raub.
On April 13, Raub police chief Superintendent Mohd Shahril Abd Rahman said Chow, Chong and three others would be called in for questioning.

Police Uncover Shocking Pornography Operation 'Run By 12-Year-Old Girl'

Subscribe to our FREE The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) have uncovered a disturbing online pornography operation orchestrated by a 12-year-old girl through WhatsApp, Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail revealed in Parliament today (19 August). According to Harian Metro, he said the operation was successfully 'The case we uncovered involved a group of schoolchildren. The website was created by a 12-year-old girl who collaborated with four of her friends,' Saifuddin said during the Minister's Question Time (MQT) in the Dewan Rakyat. According to the Home Minister, the group had set up a WhatsApp group with 762 members, where participants shared explicit images of themselves and sold them online. 'The girl even dropped out of school because her monthly income from this activity far exceeded that of her parents. So she no longer saw any reason to continue her education,' he added. Saifuddin was responding to a question from Jerai MP Sabri Azit (PN) on how far the Home Ministry has worked with other ministries to proactively address online criminal activities such as 'swinger' culture, to prevent them from becoming ingrained social trends. Addressing the broader challenge, Saifuddin acknowledged the complexities involved in handling children involved in criminal activities, noting that they are subject to different legal frameworks. 'For instance, these children cannot be brought before an open court. So how do we take action? Our laws are diverse. If we try to take legal action, SUHAKAM (Human Rights Commission of Malaysia) may argue that they are still children. 'And then there's the question of what happens to their future? So when we encounter cases like this, enforcement must be approached carefully, often requiring input from multiple agencies. That's our modus operandi,' he explained.
