KL cops begin probe on sex bloggers




City police have opened up their investigation on sex bloggers Alvin Tan and Vivian Lee.

City CID chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk Ku Chin Wah said that the two bloggers, who stirred up another controversy with a buka puasa greeting with a picture of them eating bak kut teh on their Facebook page, were being investigated under Section 298 of the Penal Code as well as the Sedition Act.

SAC Ku said attempts to contact the bloggers were unsuccessful, as both were not answering the phones when contacted.

"Both of them have yet to appear for the investigation. But I was informed they have contacted the Investigating Officer in Negri Sembilan.

According to sources, MCMC will speak to relevant people in relation to the case of Alvin and Vivian.

On Monday, MCMC head of industry surveillance and enforcement Zulkarnain Mohd Yassin had said the commission wanted to conclude their probe as soon as possible due to public interest.
