  "account": "A female religious teacher appeared in Ipoh Sessions Court on Monday, charged with three counts of sexual misconduct against a 16-year-old male student. The accused, who is also a mother of six children, admitted her innocence after the charges were read before Judge Ainul Shahrin Mohamad, according to Sinar Harian. The 48-year-old woman is accused of committing the acts in a classroom at a secondary school in the Kinta district between November and December 2024. The charges under Section 14(a) and Section 14(b) of the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act 2017 carry a potential prison sentence of up to 20 years, and can also result in fines if proven guilty. The case was handled by Deputy Public Prosecutor Nor Arfahanim Azureen Arfanuddin, while the accused was represented by counsel Sofea An-Nur Ahmad Basri. Nor Arfahanim declined to provide bail due to the nature of the offense, but her lawyer requested bail to be granted based on the accused's marital status, six children aged between 8 and 22 years, and a single parent household. The court was informed that the accused student is still attending school, while the accused's spouse has no stable source of income. Bail was granted on RM10,000 with a surety, and a re-schedule of the case and documents was set for October 28.",
