Op Daddy: Six more women arrested

KLANG, Jan 29 — Police have arrested six more women to facilitate investigations into a case of a local man promoting sex videos involving over 20 women on social media.

Bukit Aman Criminal Investigations Department director Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain said the women, 21 to 36, were arrested last week under Op Daddy’s second phase.

“Investigations revealed all the women had sex voluntarily, there was no coercion, and some were driven by profit. The women have been remanded to help with investigations to track other individuals involved in producing the sex videos,” he said during a press conference after a townhall session today.

Shuhaily reminded the public that legal action could be taken against individuals keeping pornographic materials on their gadgets under Section 292 of the Penal Code.

“It does not matter if your friends passed it or gave it; it is material; it is your position,” he said.

Meanwhile, on the nationwide Op Pintas Mega, Shuhaily said 285 foreigners were arrested in 42 raids with the cooperation of various police contingents, the Immigration Department, the Labour Department, the Environment Department, Tenaga Nasional Berhad, and Air Selangor.

“A total of 64 victims from the Phillipines, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Cambodia, and Myanmar (22 women, 12 men, 20 girls, 10 boys) were rescued, four of them were disabled persons under Section 44 of the Anti-Trafficking in Persons and Anti-Smuggling of Migrants Act (ATIPSOM) 2007,” he said.

Shuhaily added that investigations are being conducted under Sections 12 and 14 of ATIPSOM 2007 as well as Section 55B, 15(1)(C) and 6(1)(C) of the Immigration Act 1959/1963.
