KUALA LUMPUR: Perak PKR chief Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak has been remanded together with another man to assist in police investigation over the sex video scandal implicating Economic Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali.
Bukit Aman CID chief Datuk Huzir Mohamed said the police managed to get remand order to detain the duo.
“I confirm those two individuals are remanded for four days until Saturday to assist in the investigation revolving the sex video case,” he was quoted as saying to Sinar Harian.
Farshash is also PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s political secretary.
Huzir also confirmed that a third individual, who was arrested on the same day as the duo, had been released after his statement was recorded.
The case is being investigated under Section 292 of the Penal Code that covers dissemination of obscene material and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act pertaining to the improper use of network facilities or network service.
Earlier, the police arrested and remanded six other individuals in relation to the same case, with the High Court yesterday cutting short the remand period of five of them from six days to four days.[1]
However, the High Court maintained the remand order period of former Santubong PKR youth chief Muhammad Haziq Abdul Aziz for six days until Saturday.
On related matter, Perak PKR deputy chief MA Tinagaran was quoted as saying that Farhash Wafa’s detention would not affect Perak PKR’s reputation.
He said Farhash’s detention was part of a process to help police probe on the sex video case.
“And there is no need for Farhash to go on leave from leading Perak PKR as he is not the individual accused of being directly involved in the intimate video case,” said Tinagaran.
