    Amir Ukays Disiasat PDRM, Dipercayai Miliki Senjata Api

    SHAH ALAM: Bekas vokalis kumpulan Ukays, Amir akan tetap meneruskan perjuangannya dalam program Gegar Vaganza 2 biarpun namanya tercalar ekoran ditahan pihak polis selepas dipercayai memiliki senjata api kira-kira pukul 1.45 pagi pada 21 Oktober lalu.

    Amir atau nama sebenarnya Mohd Azmir Muhammad Yusof, 46, berkata, meskipun kes berkenaan masih dalam siasatan dia tidak perlu berasa malu dengan kejadian itu selain menegaskan dia tidak bersalah.

    “Saya tidak bersalah, buat apa hendak takut? Jadi tiada sebarang sebab mengapa saya perlu menarik diri biarpun pada awalnya tumpuan saya sedikit terganggu untuk mengadakan persembahan.

    “Selagi saya diterima dalam program ini saya akan teruskan berjuang demi sokongan peminat yang tidak putus-putus memberikan kata-kata semangat,” katanya kepada mStar Online.

    Amir ditemui sejurus selesai konsert minggu kedua Gegar Vaganza 2 yang diadakan di Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam (MBSA) di sini, malam Ahad.

    Amir enggan mengulas kes penahanannya kerana bimbang menggangu siasatan pihak berkuasa.

    Pertandingan minggu kedua itu menyaksikan kesemua 12 peserta mara ke minggu ketiga pertandingan tanpa sebarang penyingkiran.

    Dalam pada itu, menjelaskan mengenai kejadian itu, Amir berkata, ketika ditahan dia baharu sahaja pulang dari studio untuk menjalani latihan persembahan konsert rancangan itu sebelum memberhentikan kenderaannya berhampiran kawasan perumahannya iaitu di Sentul dekat sini.

    Kata Amir, dia berbuat demikian kerana sedang menghayati lagu Sudirman bertajuk Antara Hujan dan Air Mata yang disampaikannya pada konsert minggu kedua sebelum dihampiri polis.

    “Saya berhentikan kenderaan kerana sedang menghayati lagu Sudirman tersebut kerana ia mempunyai makna besar kepada saya namun berada di tempat dan waktu yang salah,” jelasnya.

    Jelas Amir lagi, kes berkenaan masih lagi dalam siasatan biarpun dia sudah dibebaskan dengan jaminan polis dan akan memberikan kerjasama penuh kepada pihak berkuasa.
    “Ia masih dalam siasatan dan pihak berkuasa membebaskan saya selepas percaya dengan keterangan diberikan.

    “Bagaimanapun saya minta maaf tidak dapat memberikan komen lanjut mengenainya kerana ia masih dalam siasatan dan enggan kenyataan saya nanti menggangu kerja pihak polis,” jelasnya.

    Dalam perkembangan sama, Pengurus Saluran Astro Ria, Raqim Ahmad berkata, pihaknya tidak bercadang untuk menyingkirkan Amir daripada menyertai program berkenaan kerana Amir masih belum didapati bersalah.

    “Selagi dia tidak didapati bersalah, Amir akan terus bertanding dalam Gegar Vaganza,” katanya.

    Gegar Vaganza disiarkan secara langsung menerusi pada setiap hari Ahad pukul 9 malam di saluran Astro Ria (104) dan Ria HD (123).

    Selain Amir, peserta Gegar Vaganza 2 turut disertai oleh Acong (Sweet Child), Ezad Lazim, Nassier Wahab, Nizam (Laksamana), Zul (Handy Black), Farahdhiya, Siti Nordiana, Azian Mazwan, Sheeda, Haiza dan Ezlynn.

  • Malaysian Singer Yuna Hopes Her Music Speaks For Itself

    Malaysian Singer Yuna Hopes Her Music Speaks For Itself

    Since her move to Los Angeles five years ago, Malaysian singer Yunahas gained a strong following in the US.

    Fans fell in love with her dreamy, soulful voice in hits like Falling and Come Back, which are from her second international album Nocturnal (2013).

    But it is not only her music that has piqued stateside interest.

    As a hijab-wearing Muslim musician, the 28-year-old is a rarity in the US music scene and her modest yet chic style has become a talking point in the industry.

    The New York Timeseven labelled her “the poster girl for a group of young Malaysian Muslim women, dubbed hijabsters, or hipsters who wear the hijab”.

    Not one for labels, the Kedah-born Yuna, whose real name is Yunalis Zarai, told The New Paper yesterday: “I’m not hiding the fact that I’m Muslim and a singer-songwriter.

    “I don’t like to be put in a box or labelled a certain way, but if people can relate to me in that way, then, why not?

    “I’m hoping my music speaks for itself. I don’t want the element of shock where people go, ‘Oh my God, she’s Muslim!’.”

    Yuna was in town for a concert at the MasterCard Theatres at Marina Bay Sands last night. Tomorrow, she performs in Kuala Lumpur.

    The founder-designer of fashion and lifestyle label November Culturealso fronted a Uniqlo campaign in July.

    DESIGNED BY FRIEND

    The Hana Tajima For Uniqlo clothing line, designed by her good friend, UK-born fashion blogger-designer Hana Tajima, targets women who would like to dress modestly. It is available in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.

    This marketing move, as well as Swedish fashion giant H&M’s recent advertisement which features its first hijab-wearing Muslim model Mariah Idrissi, is something Yuna celebrates.

    “I think it’s empowering and inspirational, what Hana Tajima is doing.

    “I’m all about empowering others to feel comfortable in their own skin and giving them the means to do so with the right clothes,” she said.

    “The world is slowly accepting the fact that there are people who like modesty and that not everything is about sex appeal.

    “We have these values that we hold onto and we want others to accept us for that. We don’t want to be seen as sex objects.

    “Just when you think all hope is lost when you watch MTV or the MTV Video Music Awards, a positive change is slowly taking place.”

    The direction of Yuna’s music is also evolving. Her new album, slated for a February release, will see a more “mature and urban” sound.

    She has worked with US artists like singer-producer Pharrell Williams and electronic act Owl City and her latest celebrity collaborator is R&B star Usher.

    “I wrote a song (and) I thought (it) would be great if Usher featured on it. I reached out to him and he said yes.

    “He is super sweet, down-to-earth and always smiling.

    “I respect that he is a person who is in a place in life where he’s content and wants to try new projects. I admire his courage in exploring things with me because I’m not like other artists,” she said.

  • Pengakuan Sufie Rashid: Saya Dipaksa Melakukan Seks Oral Kepada Bekas Pengurus/Bapa Tiri, Arif Dollah, Ibu Tidak Percaya

    Pengakuan Sufie Rashid: Saya Dipaksa Melakukan Seks Oral Kepada Bekas Pengurus/Bapa Tiri, Arif Dollah, Ibu Tidak Percaya

    Penyanyi Singapura, Sufie Rashid mendakwa pernah didera secara seksual oleh bekas pengurus Tegar, Ariff Dollah.

    Sufie berkata, Arif sebelum ini pernah menjadi pengurusnya dan mengaku telah dipaksa melakukan seks oral oleh lelaki tersebut.

    “Ketika itu saya berusia 13 tahun dan Arif ialah pengurus saya. Jika Tegar menerima gangguan seksual, saya lebih teruk dari itu.

    “Lebih memeritkan selepas ibu saya berkahwin dengan Arif, saya selalu menjadi mangsanya. Selama setahun saya dipaksa melakukan perkara terkutuk oleh Arif.

    “Bukan saya tidak mengadu kepada ibu, tetapi ibu lebih percayakan suaminya,” luahnya ketika ditemui di Istana Budaya pada malam Jumaat.

    Menurut Sufie lagi, kejadian yang menimpa Tegar mebuatkan dia terpanggil untuk membuat pengakuan berani itu.

    “Bodohlah saya jika melakukan ini (pengakuan) kerana publisiti. Saya tak bodoh untuk mencari publisiti dengan menjual cerita melibatkan maruah diri. Tak mungkin saya akan memalukan diri saya sendiri!

    “Arif sudah melampau…Saya fikir selepas 11 tahun, dia dah bertaubat. Saya hubungi Tegar selepas mengetahui dia diganggu secara seksual oleh lelaki  itu,” katanya kepada Astro Gempak.

    Kata penyanyi berusia 24 tahun itu, dia tidak terkejut dengan kenyataan dibuat Arif kepada media kerana lelaki itu bijak memanipulasi fakta.

    “Dia memang pandai putar belit cerita. Saya ada terbaca kenyataan Arif yang menyuruh Tegar membuat laporan polis dan pemeriksaan doktor sekiranya benar dia diliwat.

    “Saya merasakan kenyataan tersebut lucu kerana pihak Tegar tidak pernah mendakwa Arif meliwat, tetapi ia hanya gangguan seksual.

    “Apa yang cuba dia buktikan? Saya berani mendedahkan segalanya hari ini kerana saya menyimpan perkara ini sudah lama. Ya, saya mendendami Arif. Kerana dia saya mengalami tekanan perasaan dan terpaksa menjalani rawatan bersama pakar jiwa,” ujarnya kesal.

    Sufie ditemui ketika majlis sidang media sejurus selepas tamat persembahan Muzikal Nusantara di Istana Budaya.

  • Stange Calls For 12th Man To Call On The Lions

    Stange Calls For 12th Man To Call On The Lions

     

    SINGAPORE v AFGHANISTAN

    (Thursday, 8pm, National Stadium)

    The national football team’s last match at the National Stadium drew over 45,000 fans, most of whom suffered as they watched the Lions dumped out of the AFF Suzuki Cup by arch-rivals Malaysia last November.

    A little over 10 months on, Bernd Stange’s men have a vital clash against Afghanistan in their World Cup/Asian Cup Group E qualifier at the same venue on Thursday.

    Whether the team will be backed by a similar crowd remains to be seen.

    Aside from the fact the match is on a weekday night and will be telecast “live” on the Eleven Sports Network (Singtel TV Channel 109) and Mediacorp’s okto, Singapore will also be missing their two biggest stars, midfield duo Hariss Harun and Safuwan Baharudin.

    And the haze is another factor.

    Stange made a plea yesterday when he called on Singaporeans to turn out in force at the National Stadium and back the Lions.

    “Together with our fans, there should be only one winner and that’s us,” said the German, just before the team’s training at the Geylang Field.

    “We need your support and your help because we haven’t sold many tickets at this stage.

    “Our fans can push us and we definitely need our fans.

    “If something goes wrong, they should be the 12th man and we will do everything we can to beat Afghanistan.”

    The haze seems to be the biggest concern.

    The Football Association of Singapore said in a recent statement that the Asian Football Confederation will have the final say on whether the Afghanistan game, and the qualifier against Cambodia next Tuesday, also at the National Stadium, will proceed as scheduled.

    Singapore fans are well-known for purchasing tickets late, meaning the uncertainty that hangs over the match will likely affect turnout.

    Exact figures of ticket sales so far were not available last night.

    ADAPT

    Stange said the haze meant “we cannot do what we want” in certain training sessions, but he does not want to make a big deal out of it.

    “We had to slow down, we will follow the rules we have here in Singapore… because the health of our players is important,” he said.

    “We will adapt. Afghanistan have the same problems, and they will also have jetlag.

    “So we won’t make a big issue out of the haze.”

    Some fans are more concerned.

    Kenneth Seet, a 37-year-old account executive, said: “I still can’t decide to go or not because of the haze.

    “My friends and I don’t want to make a wasted trip and the safer option is to watch it ‘live’ on TV.

    “It’s unfortunate, but if the haze is really bad, we have to be wise and stay at home.”

    Others, like Faizal Kamal, disagree though.

    “I will not let the haze get between me and my love for the Lions,” said the 27-year-old civil servant.

    “Anyway, there’s always the N95 mask.”

    Tickets, priced at $38 for Cat 1 ($50 for both matches) and $28 for Cat 2 ($36 for both matches) are available through:
