Saibullah Zaid Abdul Halim, penolong pegawai penguat kuasa di Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ) Pulau Pinang, 46, mendapati dirinya terjerat dalam prosiding undang-undang berikutan dakwaan rasuah seperti yang dilaporkan oleh The Star.
Pertuduhan terhadap Saibullah, yang menetap di Sungai Jawi, Pulau Pinang, dibawa ke hadapan hakim Mahkamah Sesyen Datuk Ibrahim Osman hari ini, di mana dia membuat pengakuan tidak bersalah. Tuduhan mencadangkan Saibullah menerima rasuah berjumlah RM3,300, seperti pertuduhan yang difailkan mengikut Seksyen 165 Kanun Keseksaan.
Dakwaan rasuah ini kononnya diterima daripada Badrul Hisyam Hamid, seorang pengarah di sebuah syarikat pengangkutan, melalui pemindahan bank daripada akaun milik Fatimah Abdullah ke dalam akaun isteri Saibullah, Hazirah Ismail. Urus niaga yang dipersoalkan dilaporkan berlaku antara 4 Oktober 2017 dan 29 Mac 2018. Jika sabit kesalahan, Saibullah berkemungkinan menghadapi akibat yang teruk, termasuk hukuman penjara maksimum dua tahun, denda kewangan, atau gabungan kedua-dua.
Saibullah Zaid Abdul Halim, a 46-year-old assistant enforcement officer at the Penang Road Transport Department (JPJ), has found himself entangled in legal proceedings following allegations of corruption as reported by The Star. The charges against Saibullah, who resides in Sungai Jawi, Penang, were brought forth before Sessions Court judge Datuk Ibrahim Osman today, where he entered a plea of not guilty.
Accusations suggest that Saibullah accepted bribes totalling RM3,300, as per charges filed under Section 165 of the Penal Code. These alleged bribes were purportedly received from Badrul Hisyam Hamid, a director at a transportation company, via bank transfers from an account belonging to Fatimah Abdullah into the account of Saibullah’s wife, Hazirah Ismail. The transactions in question reportedly occurred between October 4, 2017, and March 29, 2018.
Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia (JPJ) telah mengeluarkan kenyataan berhubung BJAK Sdn Bhd (BJAK) dan perkhidmatan transaksi pembaharuan cukai jalan yang tidak dibenarkan. Menurut JPJ, iklan BJAK di laman web dan platform media sosialnya berhubung perkhidmatan pembaharuan cukai jalan adalah palsu.
JPJ menegaskan BJAK tidak pernah mendapat kelulusan daripada Kementerian Pengangkutan Malaysia (MOT) atau JPJ untuk menyediakan perkhidmatan pembaharuan cukai jalan kepada orang ramai. Beberapa aduan telah diterima oleh JPJ daripada orang ramai berhubung perkhidmatan BJAK termasuk kes pembaharuan cukai jalan dimulakan melalui laman web BJAK tetapi tempoh sah laku cukai jalan tidak dikemas kini.
BJAK mengiklankan perkhidmatan transaksi dalam talian untuk Lesen Kenderaan Bermotor (LKM) atau cukai jalan, termasuk program cukai jalan percuma. Bagaimanapun, JPJ menjelaskan bahawa tiada integrasi sistem antara sistem JPJ (MySIKAP) dan sistem yang digunakan oleh BJAK. Selain itu, aduan telah diterima mengenai caj tambahan yang dikenakan oleh BJAK semasa urus niaga pembaharuan cukai jalan.
The Malaysian Road Transport Department (JPJ) has issued a statement regarding BJAK Sdn Bhd (BJAK) and its unauthorised road tax renewal transaction services. According to JPJ, BJAK’s advertisement on its website and social media platforms regarding road tax renewal services is false.
JPJ emphasised that BJAK has never received approval from the Malaysian Ministry of Transport (MOT) or JPJ to provide road tax renewal services to the public. Several complaints have been received by JPJ from the public regarding BJAK’s services, including cases where road tax renewal was initiated through BJAK’s website but the validity period of the road tax was not updated.
BJAK advertises online transaction services for Motor Vehicle License (LKM) or road tax, including a free road tax program. However, JPJ clarified that there is no system integration between JPJ’s system (MySIKAP) and the system used by BJAK. Additionally, complaints have been received regarding additional charges imposed by BJAK during road tax renewal transactions.
