Selangor: A married couple, including the founder of the eHati marriage counselling programme, are believed to have fled the country a day before their case was to be heard in court. Selangor police chief Datuk Shazeli Kahar announced that police have identified the country the pair escaped to and are collaborating with authorities there for further action. "We believe they fled the country on Oct 13, a day before the charges were filed," he stated during a press conference at the Selangor Police Contingent Headquarters (IPK) today.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, arrest warrants were issued after the couple failed to appear in court on Oct 14. They were scheduled to be charged alongside another husband-and-wife pair, both doctors in the health and beauty fields. The case revolves around the eHati marriage counselling programme, which took place at a convention centre in Section 15 in September last year. So far, 95 individuals have been called to assist investigations into the programme.
