KUALA LUMPUR - A man with the Twitter handle Zulfadzli@bumilangit, who was arrested on Thursday for allegedly uploading a video containing racial elements on social media, has been released on police bail.

Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) secretary Datuk Noorsiah Mohd Saaduddin said the man was released after the remand order against him ended today.

"Next, PDRM, through the Classified Crime Investigation Unit, will refer the investigation papers to the Attorney-General’s Chambers in accordance with the provisions of Article 145(3) of the Federal Constitution after the investigation is completed,” she said in a statement.
