IPOH: The state Religious Department will investigate all parties, including the Chinese nationals and one Mohamad Imran Abdullah, named in the sex bribe confession of former Perak Tengah district councillor Zul Hassan.
Department director Datuk Jamry Sury said that a committee would be set up to investigate various aspects of the complaint lodged by Zul and businessman Fairul Azrim Ismail against Mohamad Imran.
The committee will first study the Syariah enactments the department could use against the two who had admitted to having illicit sex, he said yesterday.
“We will also investigate the alleged illicit sex act, the said involvement of the Chinese nationals and Mohamad Imran who is accused of being the organiser,” Jamry added.
Zul, who was earlier charged with corruption, had lodged a complaint with the department and admitted to having illicit sex with a Chinese national.
He also accused Mohamad Imran of being the person responsible for organising and promoting the sinful act by providing women to him and two others at the Kuala Kangsar rest area on Aug 14.
Jamry, who will be heading the committee, said the members would meet after the Hari Raya celebrations to look at the various aspects of the investigation.
Jamy said that under Syariah laws, witnesses must be produced in an alleged crime.
“Now we only have people confessing to the alleged sinful act,” he said.
On possible actions that could be taken against the parties involved, Jamry said the department would commence possible prosecution after the corruption trial of Zul and four others had concluded in the civil court.
Meanwhile, Perak Puteri Umno chief Dr Wan Norashikin Wan Noordin said that she welcomed the decision of the state government in sacking Zul for his admission to having illicit sex.
