Influencer couple remain in custody after court dismisses application to review remand order

KUALA LUMPUR: An influencer couple who are implicated in donation money fraud remain under custody after the High Court here dismissed their application to set aside a remand order issued by the Putrajaya Magistrate’s Court.

Justice Muhammad Jamil Hussin rejected the application filed by Mohd Hazalif Mohd Hazani, 30, or better known as Alif Teega and his wife Aisyah Hijanah Azhari, 26, after finding that the lower court had adhered to Section 117 of the Criminal Procedure Code when it allowed a remand application by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
