Asman Ambo Sakka, 35, allegedly committed the offence in the staffroom toilet of a school here at 7am between July and September this year.

He faces a jail term of up to 15 years, and is liable to whipping if convicted under Section 377E of the Penal Code.

Judge M Kunasundary set RM15,000 as bail in one surety and with additional conditions on the accused, who is from Sabah.

The conditions are that the accused must not communicate with the victim or the latter’s family, must report to the nearest police station monthly pending disposal of the case, and surrender his international passport to the court.

Earlier, deputy public prosecutor Liyana Zawawi Mohd Radzi did not oppose bail, but said the sum must be more than RM10,000 should the court allow it, and for the accused to be ordered against approaching his alleged victim.

Counsel Azi Azlin Zulkifli requested for a lower bail, saying that the accused, although unmarried, had to support his family financially.
