Malaysian Police Freeze Accounts in Child Abuse Case
News summary

Malaysian police have frozen 96 bank accounts associated with Global Ikhwan Services and Business Holdings (GISB), totaling RM581,552.31, amid ongoing investigations into alleged child abuse at charity homes run by the company. This follows a raid on September 11 that rescued 402 children showing signs of abuse, leading to the opening of 33 investigation papers, including serious allegations under the Sexual Offences Against Children Act. GISB initially denied all allegations but later admitted to 'one or two' cases of sodomy linked to their facilities. The Inspector-General of Police, Tan Sri Razarudin Husain, confirmed that authorities are also probing GISB for money laundering and related offences, while eight vehicles belonging to the company have been seized. The situation has drawn significant public attention, prompting Malaysia's King Sultan Ibrahim to call for a thorough investigation. GISB's leadership contends that the allegations are slanderous and plans to seek legal recourse.
