MCMC to haul up maker of Raya video with dogs

This matter was confirmed by MCMC Chairman Datuk Mohamed Shahril Mohamed Tarmizi.

Mohamed Shahril said Maznah Mohd Yusof, who is also known as Chetz Yusof, will be called for her statement to be recorded today, after the commission received numerous reports on the video.

“We will record her statement today. MCMC has referred the case to the Malaysia Department of Islamic Development (Jakim) yesterday.

“MCMC and Jakim will cooperate in investigating this case,” Mohamed Shahril told Astro Awani.

When contacted by Astro Awani earlier today, Chetz said she did not insult Islam and she won't apologise for something that she did not do wrong.

Chetz said she was the original maker of the three-year-old video and it was reposted without her permission.

She said the title of the video was rewritten to depict that she wanted to insult Islam.

Chetz said she now fears for her life, her family and her dogs as she has received death threats via text messages.

The 1 minute 44 seconds video depicts Chetz and three dogs strolling near a mosque with the ‘Takbir Raya’ playing in the background.

The scene then changes showing Chetz in a black Baju Melayu performing ablution and also cleaning the paws of one of the three dogs before wiping the dog's face with a piece of cloth.

She later takes out several Raya cookies from a jar before serving it to her dogs.

It also broadcasted the words “Raikanlah Aidilfitri bersama-sama, tanpa mengira spesis, warna, asal usul” (Celebrate Aidilfitri together regardless of species, colour, origin) while featuring a shot of the dogs.
