Bail Set at RM10,000 for TikTok User Facing Charges

The accused TikTok user, identified by the handle ‘Abang Bas’, was granted bail set at RM10,000 with one surety. This decision followed a request from the prosecution for bail to be set at RM25,000, along with additional conditions. The court also stipulated that the accused must report to the nearest police station monthly and cease all contact with the victim throughout the ongoing legal proceedings.
Bail Amount and Conditions

The Sessions Court approved bail for the accused at RM10,000, requiring one surety to guarantee the amount. This was decided after the prosecution had initially proposed a bail sum of RM25,000. In addition to the financial security, the court mandated two specific conditions: the accused must present himself at the closest police station at the beginning of each month and is strictly prohibited from contacting or disturbing the victim until the conclusion of the case.
Prosecution's Request

During the proceedings, the prosecution did not initially propose a bail amount. However, they suggested that if bail were to be granted, it should be set at RM25,000, accompanied by further conditions. This suggestion was made in consideration of the nature of the charges and to ensure the victim's safety and the integrity of the investigation.
Legal Representation and Further Proceedings

The 24-year-old pleaded not guilty to the charge of knowingly making and sending an offensive comment in a video posted on his TikTok account. He was represented by lawyer Umar Zulkarnain, while Deputy Public Prosecutor Nur Izzati Rozman handled the prosecution. The court set October 10 for the next mention date, aiming to consolidate this case with another involving the accused at the Muar Sessions Court.
