PETALING JAYA: Two teenagers were arrested yesterday to assist in an investigation over a viral video showing a secondary school student criticising the History paper for this year’s Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM).
Hulu Selangor district police chief Suffian Abdullah said police arrested the teenagers, both aged 18, after receiving reports from a teacher yesterday. “The viral video on TikTok and Facebook showed a male student in his school uniform expressing his dissatisfaction with the SPM History paper.“The student used vulgar words to criticise those who had set the questions and also insulted Singapore,” Suffian said in a statement.
“Urine tests for drugs on both suspects turned out to be negative and further checks showed that they do not have any past criminal record.“The case is being investigated under Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1995 and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998,” he said. Suffian advised the public to stop spreading the video, which could cause discord and confusion among the people.
