JOHOR BARU: Two more men have been arrested for having 12 sex DVDs featuring former Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek.

Johor deputy police chief SAC I Datuk Mohd Mokhtar Mohd Shariff said this brought the total number of people rounded up in the state to six.

He said the two were arrested on Saturday at 8.30pm in Taman Setia Indah here by a team of officers from the state police headquarters Commercial Crime Unit.

"These were peddlers selling DVDs on the five-foot way," he said, adding that each was found with six copies each.

SAC Mohd Mokhtar said one suspect, an 18-year-old, was also found having 51 other pornographic DVDs and 287 pirated discs while the other suspect, a 17-year-old, was caught with 18 other pornographic DVDs and 157 pirated discs.

Both have been remanded until today.

SAC Mohd Mokhtar said those who had the DVDs should hand then over to the police.

The four other suspects that have been arrested and charged in court were two women and two men picked up from Batu Pahat and Johor Baru on Thursday and Friday.
