A team from the Commercial Crime Investigation Division at Kulai District Police HQ arrested a male student in Kulai on April 8 for using AI to create explicit images with Malaysian women’s faces.
One of the victims filed a police report after finding out that her edited explicit photos (taken from her social media) had gone viral and were being sold online for RM2 each.

He has been officially expelled
The school board of Foon Yew High School in Johor has confirmed that the 16-year-old involved has been expelled, as reported by China Press.
In their six-point statement, the school board admitted their initial response wasn’t quick enough, which sparked a lot of public criticism.
They also clarified that the expulsion came after a full internal review and shut down claims that the student only got a light warning.
“The board is responsible for ensuring students’ safety and mental well-being, upholding teachers’ dignity, and promoting a culture of respect for educators,” they explained.
“We will fully support the victims”
The board has also requested that the school take stronger action in the future and thanked everyone for showing concern.
“Foon Yew High School will also fully support the victims, including giving them access to counseling.”
The school also promised to protect the victims’ identities and make sure they don’t go through more trauma.
