Yesterday, the media reported that police had arrested a well-known male actor and singer on June 3, after he was alleged to have committed physical sexual assault on a teenage girl at a hotel in Selangor.
The suspect, who was detained under Section 14(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017, was released on police bail on the same day.
The victim had reportedly met the artiste at the cafe where she worked, and they were said to have met several times before the incident occurred.
