SHAH ALAM: The Selangor police detained an 'Instafamous' individual yesterday to assist investigations regarding a dance show featuring a man scantily dressed as a woman and a fireworks show at I-City here last Friday.

Shah Alam district police chief ACP Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim said the event organiser, known only as 'Cik Lala' has been detained and remanded until May 31 after several recordings of the event were uploaded on the Tik Tok social media platform.

He said preliminary investigations revealed that the incident took place from around 8 pm until 11.30 pm at Centralwalk I-City, here on May 27.

"The complainant is the I-Soho I-City joint management body (JMB) manager, who lodged the report on May 28 after receiving a WhatsApp message about a half-naked dance that tarnished I-City's image as a tourist attraction in Selangor.

"The activity was accompanied by loud music and a fireworks show in a public area near residents' homes. Cik Lala was the individual who rented the unit for RM4,000 for a Hari Raya celebration with about 50 of her guests," he said in a statement today.

Cik Lala will be investigated under Section 509 of the Penal Code, Section 6 of the Explosives Act 1957 and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, he said.

"We are also in the process of making several other arrests and any new information will be updated later. Any information related to this case can be channelled to Insp Nur Syuhada at 017-6942736," he added.
