‘Porn pilot’ ‘under probe

The Malaysia Airlines (MAS) pilot, who was caught and fined for importing child pornography in Adelaide, has been relieved of flying duties to facilitate an internal enquiry by the national carrier.

In a statement, carried by the Star, MAS group human resources senior general manager Effendi Abdul Rahman said:

“We are first conducting an internal enquiry into this matter. Based on the findings, any further action taken will be in accordance with the MoU between Malaysia Airlines and the Malaysia Airlines Pilots Association (MAPA).”

The pilot, Ahmad Said, 25, who was identified by Australian news portals ABC News and the Adelaide Advertiser was arrested by Customs officers at the Adelaide International Airport last Thursday after they found three video files containing child pornography in his laptop.

ABC News said that when Ahmad Said arrived at the airport, he told them he did not have anything to declare. But when Customs officers searched his laptop, they found the child video files.

The Adelaide Advertiser reported that the videos were titled “Reped Virgin”, “10-Year Old” and “High School Students.”

His lawyer told the court that Ahmad had been e-mailed the video files and had not shown them to anyone else.

However, the magistrate said people like Ahmad Said are the ones who encouraged the market for child pornography.

And who is this Ahmad Said? It seems he is the son of an ACA director, according to Rocky. Go and read rocky's take on ACA Datuk, MAS and the Mail's kiddie pon.

The story was also carried by the Malay Mail. See other cuttings of the Malay Mail here.

I am glad that MAS has taken action against him. And I do hope the police will step in; interrogate him and make him talk - by whatever means!
