The Perak Islamic Religious Department (Jaipk) will take action against Raja Bomoh, whose real name is Ibrahim Mat Zin, once the state Fatwa Council gazettes his teachings as deviant. Jaipk director Datuk Mohd Yusop Husin said so far, Ibrahim is the only person identified as spreading deviant teachings in Perak. The Malaysian Consultative Council for Islamic Organisation (Mapim) has also voiced support for the state Fatwa Council to declare Raja Bomoh as unIslamic. Its deputy president Zulkifly Ibrahim has urged the relevant authority to take action to curb the spread of unIslamic teachings.
> Youths arrested for robbing cabbie
Three youths aged between 17 and 22, were arrested on Saturday (April 27) for robbery and stealing a taxi at Kampung Sungai Buaya in Kuala Langat. During the 9.30pm incident, the taxi driver had picked up the three suspects, two males and one female, from the Ampang LRT station. The victim was robbed at knifepoint before he was ordered to get out of the car after arriving at their destination. While the victim lay face-down on the road, the suspects drove his taxi away. The victim lodged a report at the Kuala Langat district police station, and officers managed to trace the suspects and the stolen taxi near a bank in Banting. Police gave chase before the stolen taxi collided with a few cars and crashed into the road divider. The young offenders are to be investigated under Section 395 and 397 of the Penal Code.
