UKM denies child porn offender Nur Fitri is staff member

Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) has dismissed claims that Nur Fitri Azmeer Nordin, a convicted child pornography offender, is currently a staff member. The university clarified that Nur Fitri was a former student who completed his doctorate in 2021, and not an employee. UKM emphasized its commitment to maintaining a professional and conducive environment for all students. The institution previously defended Nur Fitri's reinstatement in 2019, stating that he had served his sentence and deserved a second chance.
