Guru agama didakwa 8 tuduhan amang seksual, cabul pelajar
Ahmad Fahmi Haron bagaimanapun mengaku tidak bersalah terhadap semua pertuduhan.
On January 15, a 52-year-old religious teacher named Ahmad Fahmi Haron appeared in the Butterworth Sessions Court facing eight charges of sexual assault and corruption of minors. Haron denies all the charges against him. The charges span from May 2023 to January 2026, involving physical sexual assault, sexual touching, grabbing, and exposing private parts of six male students aged 13 to 17 years, as well as emotional abuse.
The first charge alleges that Haron physically assaulted a 15-year-old male student in a north Perai district school between April and May 2024, under Section 14(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017, which could result in up to 20 years in prison and a fine. The subsequent charges involve the use of physical violence against the victims in a classroom and school canteen between May 2023 and January 2026, with the intention to corrupt their morals, again under Section 354 of the Penal Code, with potential penalties of up to 10 years in prison, a fine, or a combination of both, if found guilty.
Haron's legal representative, Wan Amira Ruzaini Wan Abdul Razak, did not offer a guarantee for Haron's appearance due to the involvement of minors, but Muhd Nazreev Mohd Najeeb, the defense attorney, requested that a bail be granted for Haron while clarifying that he has been transferred to the Perak District Education Office (PPD) SPU, and there is no risk of disrupting the victim. A RM45,000 surety was approved for all charges by the court.
