Kota Tinggi District Police Chief Supt Ahsmon Bajah said the man, in his 50s, was detained at 6.15pm.

Yesterday, a closed-circuit television (CCTV) recording, which went viral, showed the suspect behaving in an indecent manner towards a woman at the office of an insurance agent in Kota Tinggi.
The one-and-a-half minute recording showed the suspect entering the office and allegedly revealing his private parts to the woman. He was also seen trying to catch the woman, who managed to escape and leave the premises. – Bernama
