POLICE are monitoring a report lodged by singer Ahmad Nubhan Ahamad after he claimed that debt collectors had turned up at his home looking for his former wife, Harian Metro reported.
Negri Sembilan police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Alzafny Ahmad confirmed that Nubhan lodged a report at the Paroi police station on Oct 23.
He said the report was classified as a cover report, with no investigation paper opened.
“However, police are monitoring the developments,” said Alzafny.
Nubhan had claimed that debt collectors were looking for his former wife Dr Afifah Hidayah Ahmad Tawfek, better known as Dr Fie, over a reportedly large outstanding debt.
In a Facebook post on Nov 12, he shared a copy of the police report and expressed concern that the incident could affect his children’s emotional well-being.
> Hundreds of people, including children, flocked to Pantai Sabak in Kota Baru, Kelantan, to collect kerang kapak that had been washed ashore, Kosmo! reported.
Local resident Rohani Seliman, 50, said she returned to the beach with her siblings after collecting some shellfish the previous night.
She said she used a three-wheeled motorcycle to transport her catch and planned to share it.
“I am here again with my siblings to collect kerang kapak for our own consumption.
“If we manage to collect a large haul, I will distribute some to other villagers,” she said.
Fisherman Saari Yusoff, 67, said he headed to the beach after seeing social media videos of the shellfish washing ashore.
He said it was his first time collecting the shellfish and that, after spending about two hours combing the beach, he managed to gather around 2kg.
Saari added that some visitors were collecting the shellfish to sell for about RM5 per kilo.
