JOHOR BARU: TV3 host Mazidul Akmal Sidek has been charged with six others, including a member of the Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) and Road Transport department (JPJ), with drug abuse at a magistrate's court. The 40-year-old Mazidul, famous for the station’s anti-crime “999” show, and the others claimed trial to consuming methamphetamine at a discotheque in Jalan Abdullah Tahir on May 12 at 2.45am.

The others include FRU member Mohd Nasir Jamil, 23, JPJ employee Johari Mohamed, 34, TV producer Fadzli Ramli, 40, Umaisyah Abd Rahim, 23, Tumijah Adras, 34, and Johari Sarkon, 34. They are believed to have committed the offence under Section 15 (1) (a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 which is punishable with a fine not exceeding RM5,000 or a maximum two years' jail. The trial is set for Sept 24.

Ganjil pulak bunyinya. Selalu Mazidul dengan garang dan tegas menerjah penagih dadah dalam rancangan TV3 999. Macam-macam jenis nasihat diberikan pada mangsa-mangsa. Siapa sangka kali ini, dia pula yang menjadi bahan media. Namun kita belum pasti apa sebenarnya yang berlaku. Mazidul menafikan yang dia terlibat. Boleh jadi ada kes perangkap. Kita semua belum pasti. Tunggulah perbicaraan di mahkamah nanti.
