KOTA BHARU:A Youtuber has been remanded for two days until tomorrow to facilitate a probe into the alleged molest of a woman, last August.

The remand order was issued by magistrate Kamarul Hasyime Rosli at the Kota Bharu Magistrate's Court here, today.

The 22-year-old suspect, who is also a television drama producer and director arrived at the court at 10.30 am.

Investigations are being carried out under Section 354 of the Penal Code for outraging a person’s modesty which provides for imprisonment of up to 10 years or fine or whipping or with any two of such punishments.
