In a bizarre and brazen plot that reads more like a scripted Netflix thriller than a real-world crime, two Chinese students have been charged in Malaysia for staging a fake kidnapping in a bid to extort five million yuan (RM2.9 million) from one of their parents. The elaborate scheme has since unravelled into a cautionary tale involving deceit, international travel, and a courtroom reckoning.
A Theatrical Crime Gone Wrong

	<source src="https://www.therakyatpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/My-Video.mp4" type="video/mp4" /></video>&nbsp;
The suspects &mdash; Ye Yingxi, 18, a student at the Singapore Institute of Management, and his alleged accomplice Zhang Runbao, 23, a student at the National University of Singapore (NUS) &mdash; thought they had devised a foolproof plan to swindle Ye&rsquo;s wealthy parents. On 2 May, the pair orchestrated a dramatic fake kidnapping at a hotel along Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman in Kuala Lumpur, replete with disturbing video evidence to support their act.
In the staged footage, Ye appeared half-naked, bound, gagged, and soaking wet &mdash; an apparent victim of waterboarding and abuse. To further sell the illusion, the alleged kidnappers claimed he had been beaten and strangled. Voice-changing software was reportedly used to create convincing phone calls demanding the ransom.
The intent was to terrify Ye&rsquo;s 40-year-old mother, Cheng Zhiwen &mdash; a successful businesswoman based in Dubai &mdash; into handing over millions for her son&rsquo;s &ldquo;safe return&rdquo;.
Family Falls for the Hoax, Then Calls Authorities
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/575a532f50b8d5b330b156b1c3780168c056214b808a47a79da4f1070f02a8fd" />
The emotional manipulation worked &mdash; at least at first. Cheng, believing her son was in mortal danger, flew from Dubai to Singapore and onward to Malaysia, where she lodged a police report and handed over the distressing videos. The Chinese Embassy was also alerted.
What followed was a large-scale investigation involving multiple Malaysian law enforcement agencies and the Singaporean authorities. With no signs of forced entry or abduction, suspicion began to mount. Immigration and travel records revealed that Ye had crossed into Malaysia via Johor Bahru voluntarily after reportedly playing online games in Singapore the day before the incident.
A Trail of Lies Leads to Arrests &amp; A Scam Rooted in Past Rejection
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/02eeef35950fcae06a6ed27d6ec9eb5456de447b050b5e0fc36b940a43d70f15" />
As investigators followed the trail, Zhang was arrested at Penang International Airport on 4 May. Ye was later found in Baling, Kedah, suffering from a leg injury. He claimed to have been released and sought help by contacting his grandfather in China from a local police station.
However, inconsistencies in Ye&rsquo;s story during police interviews led to further scrutiny. The entire kidnapping narrative soon began to fall apart under pressure, exposing the elaborate ruse for what it truly was &mdash; an attempted fraud.
According to reports, the idea may have stemmed from an earlier failed attempt to get money from family. Just two months prior, Ye had allegedly approached his grandfather with a claim that he had been duped in a cryptocurrency scam and requested 40,000 yuan (about RM23,900). When the elder refused to comply, Ye appeared to have escalated his tactics dramatically.
Legal Consequences and Courtroom Developments
&nbsp;<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=314&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FChinaPressMY%2Fvideos%2F1191517042187121%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" width="560" height="314" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Both Ye and Zhang were formally charged in the Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur. They face a primary charge under Section 511 of the Malaysian Penal Code for attempted cheating, which carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison and a fine if convicted. An alternative charge under Section 417 &mdash; for committing fraud in concert &mdash; also hangs over them, which can carry a maximum of five years&rsquo; imprisonment or a fine.
During proceedings before Judge Azrul Darus, both students pleaded not guilty. Bail was set at RM30,000 each, with two sureties. The judge also ordered them to surrender their passports as part of the bail conditions. The case is scheduled for mention on 27 May.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Noor Syafina Radzuan is leading the case, while lawyers Ernie Sulastri Ahmad and Ramesh Sivakumar represent the accused.
The Final Act: A Costly Lesson in Consequences
From the luxurious promise of an international education to the cold confines of a Malaysian courtroom, the two students now face a harsh reality that no voice modulator or video editing trick can soften.
What may have seemed like an imaginative shortcut to wealth has turned into a grim legal battle &mdash; and potentially a decade-long prison sentence. In attempting to fake a crime, Ye and Zhang have found themselves caught in a real one.
Their story serves as a potent reminder that while deception may offer momentary gain, the fallout can be ruinously real. For these young men, their final exam might not be in lecture halls, but in the unforgiving lessons of the legal system.

1Fit, once celebrated for revolutionising the fitness scene in Malaysia with its flexible and affordable class offerings, has officially announced the end of its operations in the country. The abrupt closure has left users reeling, particularly those who had invested in long-term memberships.
The platform allowed members to access a wide range of workout options&mdash;from Pilates and bouldering to swimming and gym sessions&mdash;under a single subscription plan. For many, it was a cost-effective way to enjoy variety and convenience in their fitness routine. However, in a sudden statement shared via their official social media accounts, 1Fit revealed that it has entered a formal liquidation process due to inadequate funding.
No More Bookings or Membership Access

In the announcement, the company stated that all services had been suspended with immediate effect. Users would no longer be able to make new bookings or purchases, and all existing memberships were now void. The platform also posted a video featuring 1Fit CEO Murat Alikhanov, who confirmed the company&rsquo;s inability to maintain operations despite numerous efforts to sustain the business. He added that users could request refunds via a link provided in their bio, though many have since voiced concerns about the lack of clarity and transparency surrounding the refund timeline.
Consumers Express Frustration Over Timing and Communication
The timing of the announcement and the lack of early warnings have stirred considerable backlash online. Users questioned why 1Fit continued to promote and sell memberships&mdash;some costing upwards of RM2,000&mdash;even in the days leading up to the shutdown. There were also criticisms regarding the platform&rsquo;s use of influencers and fitness ambassadors (KOLs) to attract new sign-ups, potentially while knowing the company was no longer financially viable.
One user commented, &ldquo;It is unacceptable that 1Fit was still pushing RM2K annual plans and asking KOLs to get more people to sign up, while knowing full well they were going to shut down. It shows a complete lack of respect for paying customers.&rdquo;
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/cde8a10d1910a40587d9398ad6681015ee982c955f8940c3f4343104bfa0ca8f" />
Personal Stories of Loss
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/196038c8de1ae310a78bac92b35671e6d636ec4ed5d76e44e33731161d331982" />
Several members have come forward to share their frustrations and financial losses. A recent subscriber, told that she paid RM2,500 for a 15-month membership after being introduced to 1Fit by a friend. Unfortunately, she only managed to use the platform for 2.5 months before it was shut down.
&ldquo;I was really enjoying the flexibility and the variety of classes. It fit my schedule and lifestyle perfectly. To see it all disappear so suddenly is heartbreaking&mdash;and unfair,&rdquo; she said.
Her friend, a longer-term member, is also affected and has already submitted a refund request, but has yet to receive any confirmation.
The Fitness Community Steps Up
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a0a3b2837f993a99a76d24f30689097f1769ea7eb475b2d2841e711a1dfce350" />
Amid the fallout, many of 1Fit&rsquo;s former partner gyms and studios have chosen to support the affected users rather than turn them away. A growing number of businesses are now offering free trial classes or heavily discounted packages to ex-1Fit members, with some even honouring active memberships for a limited time.
This compassionate response from the fitness industry highlights its resilience and customer-first mindset. It has been especially encouraging for users who suddenly find themselves without access to workouts they had come to rely on.
Lessons in Accountability and Consumer Protection
While 1Fit&rsquo;s liquidation may have been a business decision driven by economic realities, the manner in which it was handled has raised serious questions about consumer protection, transparency, and corporate responsibility. Many are now calling for stronger regulations on subscription-based platforms and more robust safeguards to prevent consumers from being left in the lurch.
With fitness increasingly moving into the digital and app-based space, the 1Fit incident may serve as a cautionary tale for startups and users alike. It underscores the importance of transparency, timely communication, and fair treatment of paying customers&mdash;especially when things go wrong.
What Happens Next?
As affected users wait for further updates on the refund process, the full scale of the impact is still unfolding. Whether refunds will be processed promptly remains unclear, and questions linger about whether legal action may be taken by disgruntled members.
For now, many are left disappointed, financially affected, and wary of future fitness tech offerings. The hope is that this experience will lead to better consumer protections in the digital wellness industry going forward.

The tour, slated for October 2025, marks their first full-scale live shows in the region since their 2015 performance at MTV World Stage in Malaysia.
The band will perform in Singapore on 4 October 2025 (Saturday), followed by a show in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 8 October 2025 (Wednesday). Fans in other major Asian cities&mdash;Seoul, Taipei, Hong Kong, and Shanghai&mdash;will also be treated to performances as part of the tour.

While details about the concert venues and ticketing have yet to be released, anticipation is already running high, with longtime fans eager to secure their spots once ticket sales open.

<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f6ea9c97865babb502415da9a43fccfd5a117e07069b11d6bd8a61e6db1d798c" />
SEKAI NO OWARI&mdash;literally &ldquo;End of the World&rdquo; in Japanese&mdash;is a four-piece pop-rock band whose kaleidoscopic sound and whimsical aesthetics have made them one of Japan&rsquo;s most influential contemporary groups. Formed in Tokyo and major-label&ndash;debuted in 2011, the line-up has remained unchanged: enigmatic front man Fukase (vocals, lyrics), multi-instrumentalist and band leader Nakajin (guitar), classically trained Saori (piano, stage design) and the ever-masked DJ LOVE (turntables, sampling). Their break-through single &ldquo;Starlight Parade&rdquo; lit up domestic charts, but it was 2013&rsquo;s anthemic &ldquo;RPG&rdquo;&mdash;theme for Crayon Shin-chan: Very Tasty! B-grade Gourmet Survival!!&mdash;that catapulted them into mainstream popularity, earning double-platinum certification and establishing their trademark blend of fairy-tale lyricism and stadium-sized hooks.
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gsVGf1T2Hfs" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
The quartet&rsquo;s catalogue is now packed with era-defining hits: the folk-EDM crossover &ldquo;Dragon Night,&rdquo; orchestral ballad &ldquo;Sazanka,&rdquo; and 2022&rsquo;s TikTok-fuelled &ldquo;Habit,&rdquo; which dominated the Billboard Japan Hot 100 for eleven consecutive weeks and captured the Grand Prix (Song of the Year) at the 64th Japan Record Awards. Their music frequently crosses into film and anime: &ldquo;Anti-Hero&rdquo; and &ldquo;SOS&rdquo; bookended the live-action Attack on Titan movies, while &ldquo;RAIN&rdquo; served as the end-theme for Studio Ponoc&rsquo;s animated feature Mary and the Witch&rsquo;s Flower.

SEKAI NO OWARI&rsquo;s albums&mdash;Tree (2015), the twin releases Eye and Lip (2019), and 2023&rsquo;s Habit&mdash;have each topped the Oricon charts, and the group&rsquo;s imaginative arena productions (complete with circus sets and giant inflatable creatures) are regarded as some of the most immersive live experiences in J-pop. Alongside multiple Japan Gold Disc Awards and MTV VMAJ wins, the band has collaborated with Western acts such as Owl City and Epik High and even released English material under the name End of the World, underscoring their global ambitions. With genre-bending singles, award-winning visuals and a devoted fandom that spans generations, SEKAI NO OWARI continue to re-define what a Japanese pop band can be on&mdash;and beyond&mdash;the world stage.
A Full-Sensory Experience: Not Just a Concert
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ace1a03a2e87263a32b170753433d0eac311233b22b9134661e423a7a93eaade" />
Those familiar with SEKAI NO OWARI&rsquo;s previous shows know to expect more than just a musical performance. Renowned for their cinematic visuals, immersive stage designs, and emotionally charged atmospheres, the band creates a multisensory journey that resonates long after the final encore.
Their setlists typically blend heartfelt ballads with electrifying anthems, driven by their unique fusion of J-pop, alternative rock, and electronica. Songs like SOS and Anti-Hero, which featured in the Attack on Titan films, are fan favourites that showcase their emotional storytelling and genre-defying sound.
This tour promises the same dramatic energy and breathtaking visuals that have become synonymous with the group&rsquo;s identity, making it a must-see event for fans across Asia.
A Decade in the Making
SEKAI NO OWARI&rsquo;s return to Southeast Asia has been a long time coming. Their last performance in Malaysia dates back nearly a decade, and fans have waited patiently for another chance to experience their powerful live presence. Since their MTV World Stage appearance, the band has gained international attention under their English moniker End of the World, collaborating with global artists and appearing at major music festivals.
With this tour, they are bringing their global momentum back to Asia, igniting excitement among their dedicated fanbase, known affectionately as S.N.O.W.S.
Stay Tuned for Ticket Sales

Fans are encouraged to keep a close eye on official platforms for more information and to prepare in advance&mdash;because tickets are expected to sell out fast.

SEKAI NO OWARI Returns To Southeast Asia With “Phoenix Asia Tour”

A catastrophic aviation disaster unfolded on Thursday, 12 June, when an Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner en route to London crashed shortly after take-off from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The crash, which occurred at approximately 1.39pm local time, claimed the lives of more than 240 people, making it the world&rsquo;s worst commercial aviation tragedy in over a decade.

Flight AI171, bound for Gatwick Airport, was carrying 242 individuals, including 217 adults, 11 children, two infants, and a crew of 12. The aircraft plummeted into a residential area, crashing directly into a hostel attached to a medical college in the Meghani Nagar neighbourhood during lunchtime. Among the deceased were hostel residents, including medical students, doctors, and their families.

Only One Survivor Pulled from the Wreckage
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b488dbfb511beb6542ec5caffbe4e1aaeab481af14dfbcb2486a70a84b289dce" />
In a rare miracle, one passenger survived: a British national of Indian origin named Vishwash Kumar Ramesh. Seated in seat 11A, next to an emergency exit, Ramesh was able to escape the burning wreckage. He sustained multiple injuries but remained conscious and coherent when transported to hospital.
&ldquo;Thirty seconds after take-off, there was a loud noise and then the plane crashed. It all happened so quickly,&rdquo; Ramesh told the Hindustan Times from his hospital bed. &ldquo;When I got up, there were bodies all around me. I was scared. I stood up and ran. There were pieces of the plane all around me. Someone grabbed hold of me and put me in an ambulance.&rdquo;
Footage taken after the crash showed Ramesh bloodied and limping as he was helped into an ambulance. Police later confirmed he had managed to jump from the aircraft through the emergency exit, and that he remains the only known survivor.
Devastation on the Ground
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/298db1790fd7f2209c769f3f8698d3987e1a771dd616e16c324d502e2f40f6d4" />
The destruction was not limited to those on board. At least 24 people on the ground perished when the aircraft struck the building. Many others were injured. Witnesses described the crash as sounding like a bomb explosion, and some felt the ground shake as if during an earthquake.
&ldquo;My son is safe, and I have spoken to him,&rdquo; said a woman named Ramila, whose son had just returned to the hostel for lunch. &ldquo;He jumped from the second floor, so he suffered some injuries.&rdquo; Another local, Poonam Patni, recounted the horror: &ldquo;When we reached the spot there were several bodies lying around and firefighters were dousing the flames. Many of the bodies were burned.&rdquo;
Former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani was among the victims. Authorities have asked families of the deceased to provide DNA samples for identification due to the severe burns suffered by many victims.
Cause of Crash Still Unknown
The aircraft had only just departed Ahmedabad&rsquo;s runway when it issued a Mayday call. Moments later, it vanished from radar. CCTV footage showed the plane struggling to climb before falling rapidly and disappearing from view, followed by a massive fireball rising from behind residential buildings.

Air traffic control confirmed the Dreamliner took off at 1.39pm and lost contact shortly after. The flight tracking website Flightradar24 reported that the plane&rsquo;s signal was lost less than a minute after take-off. Notably, video analysis suggested the landing gear was still down, which aviation experts noted as unusual for that stage of flight.
US aerospace safety consultant Anthony Brickhouse remarked: &ldquo;If you didn&rsquo;t know what was happening, you&rsquo;d think the plane was on approach, not take-off.&rdquo; The exact cause remains unknown, but mechanical failure or pilot error has not been ruled out.
First Crash for Boeing 787 Dreamliner
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7ac4aab4d12e1ad863baeb5b20fea9bf77a079ca63965bb06f8176a0d97e8509" />
This crash marks the first-ever fatal accident involving a Boeing 787 Dreamliner since the aircraft entered commercial service in 2011. The specific aircraft involved, registered as VT-ANB, had been delivered to Air India in January 2014 and first flown in 2013.
The Dreamliner had a reputation for being one of the safest wide-body jets, adding further shock to the tragedy. Boeing has since dispatched a team of experts to assist with the investigation, which is being led by India&rsquo;s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB).
Worldwide Response and Support
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d2cd490d60a3b48ab94fde26bbdc156ea79cd5bafa6245d7d5ffc1f24fe980ef" /> Left: Campbell Wilson ; Right: Narendra Modi
In the aftermath, Air India and its parent company Tata Group expressed deep sorrow. Air India CEO Campbell Wilson called it a &ldquo;devastating incident,&rdquo; while Tata pledged ₹1 crore (approximately &pound;86,000) in compensation for each victim&rsquo;s family. They also committed to covering all medical expenses for the injured and pledged support in rebuilding the medical college hostel.
International leaders extended condolences. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the incident as &ldquo;heartbreaking beyond words.&rdquo; UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the images &ldquo;devastating,&rdquo; and King Charles was said to be closely following developments. US President Donald Trump described the incident as &ldquo;terrible,&rdquo; while British authorities confirmed they were working with Indian counterparts to support affected families.
Three of the British victims were identified as Akeel Nanabawa, his wife Hannaa, and their young daughter, Sara. Gatwick Airport has set up a special reception centre for relatives of passengers.
Investigation Underway
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c210a1c82a8dfe9c642efb61c8b59407a49ae5d537aafba74a9fd9103ab43f50" />
India&rsquo;s Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu announced that a high-level committee of experts has been formed to conduct a comprehensive investigation. The aircraft&rsquo;s black box and cockpit voice recorder have been recovered, and data from these will be crucial in determining the crash's cause.
GE Aerospace, the maker of the plane&rsquo;s engines, has also sent a team to India to assist in analysing the flight and cockpit data. The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is working closely with Boeing and GE, while the UK&rsquo;s Foreign Office is providing consular support to affected families.
A Community in Mourning
The tragedy has left the city of Ahmedabad in mourning, with vigils being held outside hospitals and homes of the deceased. Scenes of relatives awaiting news or identification at the city&rsquo;s morgues underscore the profound human cost of the crash.
The incident has also reignited scrutiny over aircraft safety and airline maintenance standards, as many families question how such a devastating failure could occur so soon after take-off.
As investigators begin the difficult task of piecing together what went wrong, the sole survivor&rsquo;s story remains a haunting testament to the tragedy&mdash;and a symbol of hope amidst overwhelming loss.

Tragedy In Ahmedabad: Over 240 Dead In Air India Crash, British Man Sole Survivor

What began as a suspected break-in at a family home in Bukit Rambai, Melaka, during the early hours of 12 June, has now been confirmed as a deeply troubling domestic tragedy. A 51-year-old single mother, Vernita Boon (also reported as Wen Qiu Yan in some sources), and her 21-year-old eldest son, Lim Boon Kai, were found brutally stabbed to death in the living room of their home in Taman Rambai Mutiara.
Initial reports suggested a robbery, but police have since revealed that the perpetrator was not an external intruder. Instead, the horrific attack was allegedly carried out by Boon&rsquo;s second son, a 17-year-old schoolboy, who is believed to have been driven by pent-up resentment stemming from constant academic pressure.
Early Morning Horror: From Bedroom to Bloodshed
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f412e8a2c5472e6049fd21e585a15cad2bd4013b9304166c4d587d3e8955ee54" />
According to police, the suspect&mdash;who is due to sit for his Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examinations later this year&mdash;used a 20cm folding knife, concealed in his school bag, to stab his mother multiple times while she was asleep in her bedroom. When his elder brother entered the room in an attempt to intervene, he too was fatally attacked, sustaining stab wounds to the neck, waist, and back.
Melaka police chief Datuk Dzulkhairi Mukhtar stated that the youngest of the three siblings, a 13-year-old boy, witnessed the bloody aftermath. When he refused the suspect&rsquo;s command to leave the house, he was also stabbed but managed to escape. He was later found bleeding outside the home and is currently in stable condition in the intensive care unit (ICU) at Melaka Hospital.
Premeditated Violence, Not a Crime of Passion
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/364276571779dc2fd30154acbb15445fee9787c3b1315329bbf6681a97f69b0b" />
Forensic teams and officers from the Batang Tiga police station arrived at the scene around 6am. They discovered bloodied clothes discarded in nearby bushes and recovered the murder weapon&mdash;still in the suspect&rsquo;s school bag&mdash;indicating an attempt to destroy evidence.
Police believe the attack was not spontaneous but carefully premeditated. CCTV footage from the neighbourhood reportedly captured the suspect&rsquo;s movements, including his efforts to dispose of evidence. The 17-year-old is said to have purchased the folding knife several days prior to the attack.
When officers arrived, the teenager was found sitting outside the house in a dazed state. He has since confessed to the killings and is currently in custody, facing two counts of murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code. Investigations confirm he was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident.
Underlying Motive: Academic Pressure and Emotional Distress
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5e7ca778812b605ba75fff96e5e2108f458c0d2e0aa4d61e1fa8e61a7d797e53" />
At a press conference, Dzulkhairi disclosed that the motive behind the murders appears to be revenge triggered by emotional distress and unresolved resentment. The suspect reportedly struggled with his mother&rsquo;s strict academic expectations and felt overwhelmed by her frequent scolding, especially in the months leading up to his national examinations.
Neighbours told police that arguments between Boon and her children were a regular occurrence and had grown more intense in recent weeks. It is believed the older brother also contributed to the pressure, urging the suspect to focus more on his studies.
&ldquo;This is a tragic case of a child who felt trapped under academic expectations,&rdquo; said Dzulkhairi. &ldquo;The suspect claimed he was forced to study late into the night and was frequently reprimanded for not meeting expectations.&rdquo;
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FIPKMelaka%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02YR6NTYNpUSuu3zezgHX2JnLNeMWk8LZi6RTUTfXJyQsCpRRbyyrVPqeMnvrRFnuil&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="715" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
A Family Already in Mourning
The family had already suffered a significant loss just six months earlier, when Boon&rsquo;s husband&mdash;reportedly a chef&mdash;passed away from illness. Left to raise three sons on her own, Boon worked as a primary school teacher in a Chinese school in Melaka and was known for her dedication to education.
The tragedy has now left two members of the family dead, one seriously injured, and the surviving son facing the possibility of a death sentence if convicted. The home, which had been a place of familial rebuilding, is now a crime scene etched with trauma and irreversible loss.
Ongoing Investigation and Legal Proceedings
Melaka deputy police chief Senior Assistant Commissioner Ahmad Jefferi Abdullah and Melaka Criminal Investigation Department chief Assistant Commissioner Leow Kian Heong were among the officials at the crime scene as forensic teams gathered evidence.
The bodies of the victims have been sent to the forensics department at Melaka Hospital for post-mortem examination. The suspect is expected to be remanded for further investigation.
Police have classified the case as murder and believe the matter is resolved in terms of identifying the suspect. However, the tragedy has reignited wider conversations about mental health, emotional support, and the pressures placed on students within Malaysia&rsquo;s high-stakes academic culture.

Driven by emotional distress and mounting family conflict, the SPM student’s outburst ended in tragedy.

Dioriviera Arrives In Penang: Luxe Pop-Up And Dior Café Take Over Macalister Mansion

Malaysia is mourning the loss of 15 Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) students following a devastating bus crash along the East-West Highway (Jalan Raya Timur-Barat, or JRTB) near Tasik Banding, Gerik, Perak. The tragedy has prompted swift government action on multiple fronts, including the revocation of transport permits, cancellation of student loans, and the rollout of substantial financial assistance packages to victims&rsquo; families.
Fatal Crash Sparks Nationwide Grief
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c85c01ae379d0453ae8964d7be1f827a7415c34d6fa620d86e28bab96102d0e4" />
The incident occurred when a bus carrying 42 UPSI students from Jerteh, Terengganu to Tanjung Malim, Perak collided with a Perodua Alza on the highway. The impact of the crash killed 15 students on the spot, while many others sustained serious injuries. The bus was reportedly being operated by a company based in Kedah, now found to have violated transport regulations.
The tragedy has deeply shaken the nation, with leaders across government expressing their sorrow and solidarity with the affected families. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim personally conveyed his condolences and has since announced a coordinated response to support the victims and ensure accountability.
Transport Ministry Revokes Bus Operator&rsquo;s Permits
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/05c80a1143cfbfbd9bd5d30304194159c19b7170e2ccf4e295ffeed746e39b19" />
In a press conference following the incident, Transport Minister Anthony Loke revealed that the bus operator had committed two significant regulatory violations. Firstly, the bus in question had been illegally sublet to a third party in Kelantan for RM500 per month, which contravenes vehicle permit rules. Secondly, the operator failed to activate the bus&rsquo;s GPS tracking system during its journey, thereby obstructing efforts to trace the vehicle's route and operational compliance.
As a result, the Ministry of Transport has taken decisive action by revoking all vehicle permits owned by the operator, with no opportunity for appeal. &ldquo;This is a serious breach of public safety and regulatory trust. We will not compromise when it comes to the safety of our people,&rdquo; Loke stated.
To prevent similar incidents in the future, the Land Transport Agency (APAD) will establish a centralised database containing driver profiles, including past convictions and blacklisted individuals. The database will allow bus operators to perform thorough background checks before hiring drivers, ensuring only qualified and safe personnel are employed in public transportation.
Financial Assistance for Families of Victims and Survivors
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/41b8288482346eaee5a00082cda6b1393834f0364bc47fe67e3a55eb9c0b9806" />
In a move to alleviate the financial burden on grieving families, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced that each family who lost a loved one would receive RM10,000, while those with injured relatives would be provided with RM5,000 in immediate assistance. These payments are being coordinated at the federal level and will be disbursed promptly.
Government spokesperson and Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil confirmed the aid during a press briefing, also noting that the Attorney-General&rsquo;s Chambers has been directed to examine all insurance aspects related to the crash. This is to ensure families receive any entitled compensation without undue delay or bureaucratic hurdles.
PTPTN Cancels Student Loans for the Deceased
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/657b3c08759d8ae81a25622c94ce6f2f87bfe1bf01406766833d72ae3cc52c54" />
In a compassionate and symbolic gesture, the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) has announced the complete cancellation of all outstanding student loans held by the 15 students who lost their lives in the crash.
&ldquo;This is a measure of respect and support for the families,&rdquo; said Datuk Fahmi Fadzil. &ldquo;They should not have to worry about financial obligations in such a time of grief.&rdquo; The Higher Education Minister, Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir, echoed the sentiment, stating that the move is in line with existing PTPTN policy and reflects the government&rsquo;s commitment to protecting students and their families during extraordinary circumstances.
Additional Support from Education and Welfare Ministries
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/978d5c4ad68edc4998706163015e8db2005b8f761799c4e8b3e080f0d9d1281a" />
The Ministry of Higher Education, through its foundation Yayasan Perkasa Siswa, has pledged further support. Each bereaved family will receive RM2,000 in funeral assistance, while students who were injured in the accident will receive RM1,000 in disaster relief funds.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development will provide RM1,000 in aid to each of the 10 UPSI students currently receiving treatment in intensive care units across two hospitals in Perak. Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri said the funds are being drawn from the Yayasan Kebajikan Negara under the Skim Pemberian Ehsan Kepada Keluarga Mangsa, a special assistance programme for disaster victims and their families.
Calls for Greater Accountability and Reform
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a87beb631e6b866c26fbbfc3b2c7151d073a63195bc8d6dc7546fc64d4dcc036" />
The tragic accident has reignited public concern over the safety of long-distance travel for students and the enforcement of transport regulations. Critics have pointed to systemic weaknesses, including lax permit enforcement and poor monitoring of bus operators, particularly during inter-state charter trips.
Transport Minister Anthony Loke reiterated that the government will take stern action against any operator found to be in violation of safety standards. &ldquo;This is not an isolated case. We must learn from this tragedy and ensure our enforcement mechanisms are foolproof moving forward,&rdquo; he said.
The government is also urging private bus companies to take greater responsibility for the condition of their vehicles and the qualifications of their drivers. Regular audits, enhanced digital tracking systems, and stricter licensing protocols are among the proposed reforms to be rolled out in the coming months.
A Nation Mourns, and Moves Forward
As funerals take place across the country, the outpouring of support&mdash;from government agencies, ministries, and ordinary Malaysians&mdash;has been deeply moving. While no financial aid can replace the lives lost, the coordinated response signals a commitment to justice, accountability, and compassion.
In the coming weeks, investigations will continue, and further recommendations are expected to be made. For now, Malaysia mourns together, united in grief and resolve, determined to honour the memory of the 15 young lives lost with meaningful change.

The govt has also said that any appeals from the bus operator will not be entertained.
