  "account": "Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) has denied hiring Nur Fitri Azmeer Nordin, who was previously accused of child pornography offenses in the United Kingdom in 2015. The university explained that Nur Fitri is merely a former student who obtained a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in 2021. Referring to the issue that has been circulating on social media related to Nur Fitri Azmeer Nordin, UKM aims to clarify that she is not university staff. As an educational institution, UKM remains committed to creating a conducive and professional learning environment for all students. In a statement, the university emphasized that they deny Nur Fitri Azmeer being part of their staff. Nur Fitri Azmeer faced a five-year prison sentence in London after being convicted of 17 charges related to possessing, producing, and distributing child pornography at Imperial College London. She admitted guilt and was subsequently banned from receiving student loans from her alma mater and ordered to repay the entire amount disbursed. Nur Fitri Azmeer later continued her studies at UKM and defended her decision in 2019, stating that she had served her sentence and deserved a second chance. At that time, UKM affirmed that she demonstrated no suspicious behavior throughout her studies and no complaints were received against her.",
