Earlier, Sinar Harian reported that Ummu Atiyah claimed the incident occurred when she was forced to marry a GISB leader in 2015.

She refused the marriage, citing her aversion to the leader, whom she described as old and repulsive.

Ummu Atiyah then fled to a friend's house in Jordan.

However, the leader and his followers found her in Jordan and brought her back to Malaysia for the marriage.
