KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 20 — Four individuals, including three school students, who were previously detained for allegedly being involved in the circulation of a video and immoral acts involving a 15-year-old girl, will be charged in court in Baling, Kedah, tomorrow.

Acting Baling District Police Chief, Deputy Superintendent Ahmad Salimi Md Ali, said the police have received instructions for prosecution against the suspects, aged between 15 and 17, from the Deputy Public Prosecutor, BuletinTV3 reported today.

He added that the suspects will be charged under Section 14(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017 for committing physical sexual acts against a child.

“The police take this case very seriously and urge the public, especially parents and guardians, to monitor the activities and movements of children, particularly teenagers,” he said.

Media reports previously stated that three students and a former student of a local secondary school were detained after being suspected of committing gang rape and distributing obscene materials.

The arrests followed a report by a 53-year-old complainant to the school’s discipline teacher at 11am last Sunday regarding the circulation of a video showing her 15-year-old daughter naked.

One of the 17-year-old suspects detained is believed to be the victim’s boyfriend.
