Kutip derma depan bank, pasar mungkin disalahguna biaya IS

By Khairil Ashraf

PETALING JAYA : Pakar Terrorisme, mempersoal kesahihan di sebalik aktiviti kutipan derma yang dijalankan di hadapan bank dan pasar untuk pembinaan surau, masjid atau aktiviti berkaitan agama yang lain.
R Paneir Selvam khuatir, aktiviti itu berkemungkinan disalahguna untuk mendapatkan wang bagi membiayai kegiatan Islamic State (IS).
“Pada kebanyakan masa, tiada agensi yang mengawasi perkara ini. Saya ada terjumpa dengan (pihak) sebegini di pasar tani, pasar malam…dia letak satu kotak, letak gambar dan orang ramai akan menderma duit. Tetapi ke mana sebenarnya duit (sumbangan orang ramai) disalurkan? Apa tujuannya?
“Oleh itu, saya rasa sudah tiba masa untuk pihak berkuasa menjalankan pengawasan.
“Kita ada jabatan zakat untuk kutip zakat dan kita tahu ke mana sumbangkan itu disalurkan. Dari segi transaksi semua maklumat jelas, pemberi serta penerimanya. Tetapi bagi pengutip derma (di pasar dan bank) kita tak tahu,” katanya ketika dihubungi FMT hari ini.
Beliau berkata demikian mengulas kenyataan Ketua Penolong Pengarah Bahagian Counter Terrorism Cawangan Khas Bukit Aman, Datuk Ayob Khan Mydin Pithcay mengenai aktiviti kutipan derma oleh NGO tidak diiktiraf yang tumbuh seperti cendawan selepas hujan mungkin didalangi kumpulan militan IS bagi menampung aktiviti mereka.
Ayob berkata, dana yang dikumpul dipercayai digunakan untuk menyebarkan ideologi dan propaganda IS, selain membiayai kegiatan militan itu di Syria.
Mengulas lanjut, Paneir yang juga Pengerusi Persatuan Penyelidik Dasar dan Undang bersetuju dengan kenyataan yang Ayub memandangkan wang adalah faktor penting dalam melakukan dan mengembangkan aktiviti keganasan .
Susulan itu Paneir mencadangkan jabatan agama di negara ini supaya tampil dengan peraturan wajib berkenaan pendaftaran pengutipan derma berkaitan agama bagi membanteras aktiviti kutipan derma yang mungkin didalangi kumpulan militan IS.
“Selain itu, pegawai jabatan agama harus melakukan pemeriksaan mengejut. Mereka kena pergi ke lokasi berkenaan (pasar, bank) dan menemubual pengutip derma berkenaan. Tanya tujuan sebenarnya mereka mengutip derma,” katanya.

Two Tales, Two Leaders - PART 1

Man has dual nature; he is both his own person and a member of his country. On the one hand, the law must protect the individual from the injustices of the multitude.  History has shown how individuals fall prey to mass perversity, their crime being simply a refusal to conform to the beliefs and prejudices of the majority. Anwar Ibrahim, The Asian Renaissance, 1997., Page 63. The value system and ethical code therefore determine the success or failure of corrective measures. If the value system is wrong, corrective measures will not be productive or will be only slightly productive. When the value system motivates, very little corrective measures are needed. Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad, The Malay Dilemma, 1970., Pages 172-173. Introduction Malaysia is our motherland. We love our country. This country has so much of wealth. Even though, Malaysia has agonized considerably in past three decades because of the malpractices of the corrupted characters but she is never fail t...

Brexit: A lesson for Malaysians

Yesterday, Britons through a referendum made a decision to leave European Union. The ruling Conservative Party divided on this referendum and David Cameron in favour of ‘Remain’ was defeated outright. Even though he is disagreed with the decision of Britons, he announced that he is resigning from his premiership in respect of people’s decision. We can expect in a mature democracy country like United Kingdom this is vastly anticipated to be transpired.   A few days ago, the current Chief Commissioner of Malaysian Anti-Corruption of Commission made a statement that he is stepping down from his position and there are some rumours indicating that a few prominent officers from the said Commission will either resign or retire. It’s very eccentric news for Malaysians as it will have a profound impact on bribery and corruption issues in Malaysia as a whole. Recently, the results of two by elections were won by Barisan Nasional, the ruling party of Malaysia. Many promises had been...
