Iqmal, 31, failed to appear for pre-trial case management and the warrant was issued after his bailor, Zaileen Nadia Zubir, reported his disappearance. Zaileen stated that she was unable to locate Iqmal after searching his house and surrounding areas, as well as visiting his village. Police investigations showed that Iqmal's father reported his son had not returned to the village since January, leading to the police investigation. Iqmal's bail was returned to the bailor following the issuance of the warrant.",
