Compiled by NATASHA JOIBI, NG SI HOOI and R. ARAVINTHANPORNOGRAPHIC photographs were delivered to 72 umrah pilgrims from a hacked smartphone belonging to Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor, Mingguan Malaysia reported. The pilgrims, who received the photos through WhatsApp, included several imam who were seen off on Thursday by Tengku Adnan to Aceh, Indonesia, for a religious mission. The minister said he only knew about the hacking when one of the pilgrims informed him about it. It’s my mistake that irresponsible people had probably taken the opportunity to clone my phone,” he added. Tengku Adnan said he would not forgive those responsible for the act and had asked the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to investigate the matter.
