Fahmi Reza headed to police station, says he will not answer questions


KOTA KINABALU: Artist Fahmi Reza says he is headed to a police station here following reports that have been lodged against him for sedition, among other matters.

In a post on X at 4.59pm on Monday (Dec 30), Fahmi said he was on his way to the police station about an illustration of his, which has since been turned into a mural.
