Guru tahfiz mengaku tak salah amang seksual 2 pelajar
Muhammad Ilyas Jamaludin didakwa melakukan amang seksual fizikal terhadap dua kanak-kanak berumur 10 dan 11 tahun di sebuah maahad tahfiz di Taman Keramat.
On this day, Muhammad Ilyas Jamaludin, a 35-year-old religious teacher, appeared at the Ampang Sessions Court facing four charges of committing physical sexual assault against two male students at a tahfiz (Islamic school) in Taman Keramat, Kuala Lumpur. The alleged incidents took place between the previous month and the current month, involving two boys aged 10 and 11 years old.
He is charged under Section 14(a) and 14(b) of the Children's Offenses Act 2017, alongside Section 16(1) of the same Act. Sections 14(a) and 14(b) carry a maximum jail term of 20 years and a fine, while Section 16(1) can result in a maximum 5-year jail sentence and a fine of not less than 2 years, if the offense is proven.
Nadiah Malek Fauzie, the advocate for the prosecution, did not offer a guarantee due to the severity of the alleged offense, as it could cause severe distress to the victims if released. Defense lawyer Zaharudeen Harun requested a RM10,000 bail for all charges, arguing that the defendant's children were being forced to cease work and were in need of support from their parents.
The madrasah where the incident occurred has terminated the defendant's employment and has no further issues with the school. Judge Ho Kwong Chin granted the defendant bail of RM30,000 with a co-signer, requiring him to report to the nearest police station monthly and not to interfere with the witnesses or victims until the case is concluded. The case will be heard again on October 5th.
