GEORGE TOWN:
Police have arrested a man and a woman allegedly seen in a viral video committing indecent acts at a Chinese cemetery in Air Itam, Penang.

Timur Laut police chief Abdul Rozak Muhammad said a report was filed yesterday over the incident which occurred at the Batu Gantung Chinese cemetery on March 22.

Rozak said a 37-year-old woman was arrested at a flat near Rifle Range, Air Itam, while a 58-year-old man was nabbed in Sungai Ara.

“Both suspects admitted their involvement in the case,” he said in a statement.

The pair were later remanded until Thursday.

The case is being investigated for committing indecent acts, insulting the modesty of a person, and the misuse of network facilities.

A viral video showed the pair being confronted after engaging in a lewd act at a tombstone in the cemetery, which saw the man in the nude.

NST quoted Penang police chief Azizee Ismail as saying the two were not married.
