SHAH ALAM, Oct 1 — Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Zambry Abd Kadir said any need or action by the Higher Education Ministry (KPT) concerning the Global Ikhwan Services and Business Holding Sdn Bhd (GISBH) issue will be taken after receiving a full report from the special team investigating the case.
So far, the ministry has not received a complete report on whether lecturers or students at the public university level are involved in or linked with this issue.
“However, the most important thing is that the situation is now being dealt with by the authorities through a 'task force' that has been formed
"So let the comments about these people be done through the ‘task force' and if there is a need for KPT's involvement, then we will channel help if needed,” he said after officiating the National Academia Month 2024 at Universiti Teknologi Mara today.
On September 11, the Royal Malaysia Police launched Op Global, conducting raids on charity homes connected to GISBH throughout Peninsula Malaysia, which were suspected of child exploitation and misconduct of religious activities.
In the raids, 572 victims were successfully rescued, and 359 GISBH followers including top management were arrested.
