Influencer in Malaysia fined RM40,000 for offensive video involving homeless man<\/h2>\n

A 23-year-old social media influencer in Malaysia was fined RM40,000 (about S$12,900) on Thursday (29 Jan) after pleading guilty to posting an offensive video on Instagram involving a homeless man.<\/p>\n

Tang Sie Luk admitted to knowingly creating and uploading the video on his Instagram account, @aluk_777, with the intent to cause annoyance.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred along Jalan Wong Ah Fook in Johor Bahru.<\/p>\n

Lasting just over a minute, the video later went viral on social media before being taken down, drawing widespread public backlash.<\/p>\n

Charged with creating & distributing offensive content<\/h3>\n

Tang was charged under Section 233(1)(a) of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, which relates to the creation and distribution of extremely offensive content.<\/p>\n

The offence carries a maximum fine of up to RM500,000 (S$161,000), imprisonment of up to two years, or both, as well as an additional fine of RM5,000 (S$1,600) for each day the offence continues after conviction.<\/p>\n

Sessions court judge Sazlina Safie ordered Tang to pay a RM40,000 fine, with four months’ imprisonment in default.<\/p>\n

Tang paid the fine.<\/p>\n

However, Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission deputy public prosecutor Fadhli Ab Wahab urged the court to impose a deterrent sentence, arguing that the act amounted to exploitation rather than charity.<\/p>\n

“The victim has also said he felt insulted and angry by the accused’s actions. This was not an act of charity. It was a calculated act of exploitation, using human suffering to create social media content for entertainment and public attention,” he said.<\/p>\n
