KUALA LUMPUR: Local rapper Wee Meng Chee, better known as Namewee, is believed to have surrendered himself to the police early Wednesday (Nov 5) morning.
In a social media post, Namewee took a video, showing a police station in the background.
"I have just arrived in Kuala Lumpur.
"I have now arrived at the police station, and from here on, I will fully cooperate with the police investigation to give an explanation to the public and the deceased’s family.
"I will not run away, in the past when I was wanted (by the police), I voluntarily reported myself each time and never fled," he said in a post on Facebook.

The police are expected to issue a statement on the matter soon.
The police had earlier said they were looking for Namewee to assist the investigation into the death of Taiwanese social media influencer Hsieh Yun-hsin.
The police had earlier reclassified Hsieh's case as murder after the initial sudden death classification.
Namewee was reportedly the last person with Hsieh prior to her death on Oct 22.
The victim was found dead at a hotel room in the city.
