Earlier this week, it was reported that an unnamed female celebrity is being monitored by Bank Negara as she is believed to be related to the investigation of Money Laundering Crime (AMLA).
The story blew up with netizens listing down possible female celebrities who they believe would pull off such a crime. Unfortunately, actress Fara Mendoza and singer Daiyan Trisha got dragged into this mess.
Fara quickly took to her IG Story yesterday (Wednesday, 25th October) to address the speculations. In the screenshot shown, she said, “I really don’t understand here. Why is my name being mentioned in the money laundering case? I don’t even own luxury cars! Do you know what money laundering actually looks like? I swear, I feel like shooting these netizens who are spreading this false information”.
In another story posted earlier today, the 35-year-old said she’s tired of being slandered for something she didn’t even commit. Singer-actress Daiyan Trisha was also rumoured to be involved in the case but denied the allegations with a poem posted on her Twitter page which roughly translates to, “Be mindful of the words you’re saying, As this life is not forever, Think carefully before accusing, As slander is more sinful than murder.”
At the time of writing, there has been no update on the identity of the actual female celebrity who is involved in the money laundering case. According to reports, the celeb was described to be an actress who owns a successful business, is living a luxurious lifestyle and has never been shy about flaunting her wealth on social media.
Since it was mentioned that the unspecified star is only being monitored for now, we can assume that no arrest or confrontation has been made by the authorities. Any guesses on who it might be?
