Activist out on bail after remand expires over Kangar land case
Kangar police chief Yusharifuddin Yusop says two investigation papers, including one involving seditious content posted on social media in connection with the demolition of a temple, have been completed.
A land encroachment case in Bukit Lagi has led to the release of an activist on police bail. The two-day remand order, imposed on September 4, has now expired. Kangar police chief Yusharifuddin Yusop announced that two investigation papers, including one with sedition-related content, have been forwarded to the state prosecution director.
The activist, a consultant, was initially remanded on September 4 to aid in the sedition probe. However, he was rearrested after his remand period concluded. The investigation under Section 447 of the Penal Code and Section 4(1) of the Sedition Act 1948, along with Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, may be pursued.
