Pelajar 'Pailang' berdepan tindakan undang-undang

Kertas siasatan telah diserah kepada pendakwaan IPK Sarawak untuk tindakan lanjut

KOTA SAMARAHAN: Tiga pelajar perempuan sebuah sekolah menengah di Asajaya di sini yang menggelar diri mereka sebagai ‘pailang’ (samseng) bakal berdepan tindakan undang-undang.

Ketiga-tiga pelajar berkenaan berusia 16 tahun akan didakwa di bawah Seksyen 323 Kanun Keseksaan kerana sengaja mendatangkan kecederaan terhadap seorang pelajar perempuan, 15, di sekolah yang sama.

Menurut Ketua Polis Daerah (KPD) Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah (IPD) Kota Samarahan DSP Lee Chong Chern, kertas siasatan telah diserahkan kepada bahagian pendakwaan Ibu Pejabat Polis Kontinjen (IPK) Sarawak untuk tindakan selanjutnya.

“Sebelum ini, seramai 10 pelajar yang terlibat dalam kes itu berdasarkan rakaman video yang dimuat turun daripada media sosial telah dipanggil untuk memberi keterangan.

“Bagaimanapun, tujuh daripada pelajar berkenaan telah dibebaskan selepas kawat cam dilakukan.

“Kita telah menahan tiga pelajar terbabit untuk disoal siasat, mereka kini dibebas dengan jaminan pihak polis,” katanya ketika dihubungi semalam.

Pada masa sama, Lee memberitahu pihaknya memandang serius jenayah yang membabitkan pelajar di sekolah.

Katanya, kes membabitkan pelajar perempuan dibelasah itu telahpun berlaku sebulan lalu dan hanya disebarkan menerusi media sosial baru-baru ini.

“Perkara ini telah menimbulkan rasa tidak puas hati di kalangan ahli keluarga pelajar yang dibelasah,” jelasnya.

Beliau memberitahu sepatutnya pihak sekolah mengambil tindakan yang cepat untuk menyelesaikan masalah itu bukannya cuba untuk menyembunyikannya.

Mengulas lanjut mengenai tindakan individu tidak bertanggungjawab yang memuat naik video dan gambar pelajar- pelajar terbabit kes itu di laman sosial, Lee berkata pihaknya belum lagi menerima laporan daripada Suruhanjaya Komunikasi dan Multimedia Malaysia (SKMM) untuk diambil tindakan.

“Kalau ada laporan kita boleh mengambil tindakan yang sewajarnya,” jelasnya.

Sementara itu, jurucakap Pejabat Pendidikan Daerah (PPD) Samarahan berkata, laporan berhubung kes itu telahpun dihantar kepada Jabatan Pendidikan Negeri dua hari yang lalu untuk tindakan lanjut.

Menurutnya, pihaknya memandang serius perkara yang berlaku dan pihak sekolah telah mengambil tindakan yang sewajarnya.

“Kita amat kesal dengan apa yang berlaku membabitkan pelajar ini dan mereka yang terlibat harus menerima hukuman setimpal dengan apa yang telah mereka lakukan,” katanya.

Beliau menambah rasa penyayang di kalangan pelajar sekolah semakin hilang kerana mereka sanggup bertindak di luar batasan.

Dalam kejadian yang berlaku baru-baru ini, seorang pelajar perempuan disepak, dipijak dan diheret atas lantai oleh sekumpulan pelajar perempuan dari sekolah yang sama telah dimuat turun melalui media sosial.

Dalam video berdurasi satu minit 17 saat, pelajar perempuan yang merakam kejadian berkenaan turut memperkenalkan dua rakannya sebagai ‘gengster’ dan ‘kak yong’ dan memanggil dirinya sebagai ‘pailang’ yang bermaksud samseng.

Didenda RM2,000 akibat menumbuk guru besar hingga cedera

KOTA KINABALU: Gara-gara marah anaknya tidak terpilih mengikuti tarian sempena Hari Kemerdekaan, seorang pesara penjawat awam didenda RM2,000 atau empat bulan penjara di Mahkamah Majistret di sini atas kesalahan mencederakan seorang guru besar.

Majistret Cindy Mc Juce Balitus menjatuhkan hukuman itu terhadap Lim Teck Sin, 48, selepas mengaku bersalah.

Peguam bela tertuduh, George Ngui memberitahu mahkamah anak guamnya merupakan seorang bekas anggota polis dan pernah dianugerahkan sijil daripada ketua polis atas perkhidmatannya dalam Jabatan Narkotik.

Tambahnya, tertuduh juga ada membuat kenyataan maaf secara terbuka pada 11 Februari lalu di dalam sebuah akhbar tempatan.

Menurutnya, ketika kejadian tertuduh tidak dapat mengawal kemarahannya kerana anaknya disingkirkan daripada mengikuti tarian. Oleh itu, pihaknya memohon bon berkelakuan baik.

Lim didakwa menyebabkan kecederaan dengan menumbuk pipi kanan seorang wanita, Ong Kooi Huang, 51, hingga bengkak pada 6 Ogos tahun lalu jam 8.45 pagi di kantin S.K Anglo Chinse, dekat Taman Lido, Luyang.

Atas kesalahan itu, dia didakwa mengikut Seksyen 323 Kanun Keseksaan yang memperuntukkan hukuman penjara sehingga setahun atau denda sehingga RM2,000, atau kedua-duanya sekali.

Berdasarkan fakta kes, pada hari kejadian mangsa ternampak tertuduh bertengkar dengan seorang guru lalu mendekati mereka.

Mangsa mendapati punca tertuduh bertengkar kerana anaknya tidak dipilih untuk mengikuti tarian sempena Hari Kemerdekaan. Dia cuba menjelaskan keadaan namun tertuduh tidak ingin mendengarnya.

Hal ini menyebabkan mangsa menyuruh guru berkenaan meneruskan latihan tarian dan tidak mengendahkan tertuduh. Tertuduh yang berang telah menumbuk mangsa sekali di pipi.

Peguam pemerhati Ram Singh dan YS Low yang mewakili mangsa, menyatakan pihak yang terjejas adalah pengadu (mangsa). Pengadu juga tidak menerima kenyataan maaf terbuka kerana akibat daripada kejadian itu, dia tidak dapat bertugas selama 10 hari.

Dia juga mempersoalkan mengapa selepas enam bulan barulah tertuduh membuat kenyataan maaf.

Sementara itu, Pegawai Pendakwa Cif Insp Lim Swee Beng memohon mahkamah menjatuhkan hukuman yang setimpal dengan kesalahan.

Grandma alleges mistreatment of grandson

SIBU: Engut Jampong, 64, was shocked when she saw her grandson Bomay Edwin come back from school on Thursday afternoon with bruises on his face and body.

It seemed that the boy, a Primary One pupil at Sekolah Kebangsaan Sungai Buloh in Selangau, had cried hard over some kind of pain which he could not bear.

According to her, it was also unusual for Bomay to return from school at 5pm.

He came back with bruises on his forehead, right cheek, right thigh, lip, right side of his neck and on his back.

There were also signs of his ears being pinched.

“We asked him how he got the bruises. He was reluctant to tell at first.

“He said he was caned by a ‘kakak’ (older sister) at his school,” Engut said when met at Selangau police station yesterday.

He said that the ‘kakak’, who happened to be a Pembantu Pengurusan Murid

(Teaching Assistant) at the school, punished him for stealing another pupil’s T-shirt.

The boy also alleged that the assistant knocked his head against some objects.

“She had no evidence and yet she punished my grandson as if he was guilty.

“I do not mind if she caned him on his leg or palm if he really stole the T-shirt. But I believe he did not,” the farmer from Rumah Ungat at Mile 58 Bintulu/Selangau Road said.

“But the marks on his face and neck are not what I ever expected,” she added.

Curious with the incident, Engut accompanied by Betty Ungat, the daughter of the longhouse chief, went to the school to seek explanation from the assistant.

“She admitted her act,” she said.

Engut lodged a police report that same day before they went to Selangau Health Clinic for a medical checkup.

“I do not want other people’s children to suffer the same fate as my grandson,” she said.

School Extortion

KUCHING: The abnormal behaviour of her son and the loss of a few thousand ringgit in household items, including a Rolex watch and jewellery, has led a family to an astonishing truth — that their son has been extorted in school.

Astonishing as it may be, the extortionists comprise a Form Two student and a transition class student from the same school, who are believed to be members of a drugs syndicate.

The two are currently being detained for a urine test.

Two outsiders have also been detained since a police report was lodged on Sunday to facilitate investigation.

According to the victim’s mother, Chen, 38, her son (name not disclosed) started showing an abnormal behaviour since August last year.

Her son is also a Form Two student at the school.

Chen said the behaviour of her son, who used to be very active, turned from bad to worst two months ago as he would lock himself inside his room after school and refused to eat or sleep.

The ‘moment of truth’ finally surfaced when the victim’s father (name not given) was looking for his Rolex watch, but could not find it.

Following that, members of the family started to question the boy, and after several questionings, he finally revealed the truth.

The family then lodged a police report last Sunday and the boy’s grandfather went to the school on Monday to tell the school principal about the incident.

Yesterday, Chen and her father Chen Vun Nyap (the victim’s grandfather) met with Bandar Kuching MP Chong Chieng Jen at DAP headquarters to narrate their nightmare.

They estimated their total loss at more than RM30,000, including a missing laptop.

Chen said her son has been sick for the last few weeks due to the stress he suffered and is seriously considering to transfer him to another school.

Chong, who is also Kota Sentosa assemblyman, said there might be other students experiencing a similar fate but chose to suffer in silence.

He expressed hope that the school principal and the authorities would quickly tackle the problem, adding that the incident at the school could be just a tip of the iceberg.

“There is a possibility that similar incidents are also happening in other schools, so it is hoped that the school authority be more proactive,” Chong said.

He hoped the police and Education Department will investigate the incident at the school thoroughly and not sweep the problem under the carpet.

Two nabbed for attacking fellow student

The students aged 16 and 17 were alleged to have attacked a 16-year-old student at the school on the afternoon of Feb 28.

Three outsiders were also said to be involved in the case.

During the incident, the victim suffered head and face injuries. After relating his ordeal to his family, he was brought to the police station to lodge a report.

The police then went to the school and identified the suspects yesterday morning.

According to the police, they also had identified a few other suspects and were looking for them.

Yesterday’s arrest was made just a day after three students from a school in Kota Sentosa were arrested for extorting a fellow student.
