Two men, aged 40 and 23, were remanded to the Magistrates' Court in Kuching for three days to aid in the investigation of a fire-related mischief case at a Jalan Green convenience store, according to prosecutors.

The court mandated the suspects to remain in custody from September 23 to September 26 under Section 436 of the Penal Code.
