GOMBAK, July 13 — The police received a report from the mother of social media influencer A. Rajeswary Appahu, 30, better known as Esha, regarding alleged online threats through TikTok against her late daughter involving three individuals, including a former police officer.
Gombak police chief ACP Noor Ariffin Mohamad Nasir said P. R. Puspa, 56, made the report at 6.34pm yesterday at the Selayang police station.
“The report has been transferred to the Setapak police station because the incident happened at PPR (People’s Housing Programme) Gombak Setia and PPR Gombak Setia is under the administration of Setapak police station, Wangsa Maju district police headquarters (IPD),” he said when contacted by Bernama yesterday.
At 6pm on Thursday (July 11), Puspa, accompanied by her son-in-law, appeared at the Gombak police headquarters (IPD) to lodge a report regarding the allegations involved before recording her statement.
Speaking to the press at Gombak IPD, she said that her other children have informed her about videos and live broadcasts uploaded by the three individuals gossiping about the late Esha.
“One of them (of the three) is a woman, a former police officer who disputed Esha’s claims regarding her arrest previously,” Puspa said.
Bernama earlier reported that Esha was found dead from an apparent suicide in a residential unit in a condominium in Setapak last Friday (July 5), a day after she made a police report at the Dang Wangi police station here regarding the online threats she encountered.
The report was then referred to the Sentul police headquarters for investigation.
