KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian influencer and actor Aisar Khaled appears to be addressing his ongoing troubles after posting a succinct message on his Instagram Story reading, "May God make things easy, please pray for me."
Malaysian influencer and actor Aisar Khaled, 26, is being accused of financial fraud and money laundering involving around 5.7 billion Indonesian rupiah, or approximately RM1.3 million, according to Indonesian prosecutors. Despite the allegations, the influencer continues to share his charitable work on social media.
