Warden at Al-Quran learning centre sentenced to six years' jail for sodomising two boys
SEREMBAN: A warden from an Al-Quran study centre has been sentenced to six years in prison and two strokes of the cane by the Sessions Court here after pleading guilty to charges of committing physical sexual assault, sodomy, and unnatural carnal sex against two boys between 2023 and January 2024. Judge Datin Surita Budin handed down the sentence against Mohd Khairi Fitri Baharom, 38, on Thursday (June 12) after the three charges were read separately and ordered him to serve the prison sentence starting from the date of his arrest on May 25. Surita also ordered the accused to undergo rehabilitation counselling and police supervision for one year after completing his prison sentence. According to the charges, Mohd Khairi Fitri was accused of committing physical sexual assault against a 12-year-old boy between December 15 and 20, 2023, in a warden's room at the study centre in Jempol. He was accused of sodomising the same victim again around 10.30pm on January 7, 2025, and committing unnatural carnal sex against a 10-year-old between April and December 2024 at the same location. The offences were charged under Section 14(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017, read together with Section 16(1) of the same act, which carries a maximum prison sentence of 20 years and caning if convicted. He was also charged under Section 377C of the Penal Code for committing carnal intercourse against the order of nature without consent, which carries a prison sentence of not less than five years and a maximum of 20 years and caning if convicted. The accused, who was not represented by a lawyer during the appeal process, requested that the court impose the lightest possible sentence on the grounds that he still had his mother to care for. Deputy Public Prosecutor Norazihah Asmuni requested a proportionate sentence be imposed, given that the offences involved children and the accused was an individual responsible for their care and safety. "The accused abused his power and committed sexual harassment against them (the victims). Therefore, a proportionate sentence is requested as a lesson for offences against vulnerable children who can be exploited by anyone," she said. Mohd Khairi Fitri pleaded not guilty to 12 other similar charges against the same victim and five other children from around 2024 to January 24, 2025, at the same location and a house in Jalan Air Melana in Kuala Pilah. The court set July 14 for the next mention of the case and appointment of a lawyer. – Bernama

High-profile cases now wrapped up in six months
Published on: Thursday, June 12, 2025 Published on: Thu, Jun 12, 2025 By: Bernama Text Size: Azam said one of the main factors that enabled the shorter investigation period was the improvement of investigation modules and systems by reviewing outdated elements in the commission's procedures. - Bernama pic BANGI: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has shortened the investigation period for high-profile cases from one and a half years to just six months, thanks to the implementation of new approaches, including upskilling officers and utilising the latest technology. MACC Chief Commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said one of the main factors that enabled the shorter investigation period was the improvement of investigation modules and systems by reviewing outdated elements in the commission's procedures. Advertisement 'In the past, one high-profile case could take us about one and a half years to complete the investigation papers, but now we can complete them within six months. Secondly, we enhance our officers' skills and knowledge. 'About 10 years ago, we needed to dispatch many officers to conduct surveillance. But now, we just use technology to locate suspects and witnesses. So, in a very short period, we can locate the suspect or the person we want to find,' he said. Azam said this at a press conference after attending the 2025 MACC-NTU International Law Enforcement Programme Convocation here today. In addition, Azam said the MACC has also established strategic collaborations with external parties to strengthen its investigation capabilities, especially in technical aspects and financial forensics. He said international cooperation also plays a vital role, particularly in tracing and recovering assets located abroad. 'We also collaborate with many parties. For example, our collaboration with the Malaysian Institute of Accountants helps us with asset tracing and forensic accounting,' he said. On the need to increase staffing, Azam said that although there was a rise in the number of reports from 2020 to April 2025, totalling 34,819, mass recruitment of MACC officers is not the primary solution to strengthening anti-corruption efforts. 'I do not see that adding a large number of MACC officers is the solution to combat corruption in this country. The most important thing is our approach,' he said, adding that during the same period, 5,145 investigation papers were opened, leading to the arrest of 5,703 individuals. He said that out of these arrests, 2,479 individuals were prosecuted and 1,274 were subsequently convicted in court. The MACC also recorded significant financial enforcement outcomes, including the seizure of RM3.54 billion in assets and the forfeiture of an additional RM27.87 billion. At today's convocation, 250 people graduated from the programme, and they have now been appointed as new MACC officers. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
