Hazani said the investigation was conducted in accordance with Section 354 of the Penal Code which provides for a maximum jail term of 10 years or a fine or whipping, or with any two of the punishments.
The politician was arrested by the police on June 3 to assist in the investigation following a police report lodged from one of the Unduk Ngadau participants who claimed to have been molested by the suspect.
