Pupils in trouble for storing MJ’s hits
By SHAHRIL CHE WAN, TAN SIN CHOW and ANN TAN
In death, Michael Jackson can still spell trouble. In Terengganu, Year Five pupils are set to face the music for downloading the King of Pop’s hits into their state-sponsored digital notebooks or e-books.
And in Penang, pirates who tried to hawk his songs have been hit hard by the cops. Five pupils in Terengganu had stored Jackson’s hits like Man In The Mirror, Beat It and Billie Jean in e-books which was discovered during a spot check by disciplinary teachers at several schools here.
Two of the e-books also had video clips of the star. Jackson’s song have been highly sought after following his death on June 25. Some 12,800 Year Five pupils in Terengganu have been allocated e-books since May to be used in classes.
State Education, Higher Learning, Science, Technology and Human Resources committee chairman Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman said the five pupils were let off with a warning from their principals. He said the state would not tolerate the offence and was working out a way to punish those who break the rules. “We will probably confiscate their e-books,” he said.
In George Town, hundreds of copies of CDs and DVDs playing Jackson’s greatest songs and MTV musical hits were seized in a police raid at a shop in Prangin Mall on Wednesday. Each CD and DVD was priced at between RM6 and RM8. State Commercial Crimes Depart-ment spokesman Supt Ravindar Singh said it was wrong for the peddlers to cash in on the celebrity’s death.
“We believe the pirated disc sellers have been burning more CDs and DVDs to keep up with consumer demand after Jackson’s death,” he said when contacted. During the 2pm raid, a seven-member police team led by State Commercial Crimes Department chief Asst Comm Roslee Chik seized more than 7,500 pirated discs, including 1,100 copies of pornographic VCDs/DVDs from the shop.
Police also arrested a 36-year-old caretaker who claimed he had just started working at the shop 10 days ago.
