KL Court Grants M’sian Gigolo ‘Hot Daddy’ & His 2 Female Friends DNAA for Porno & Prostitution Charges

Infamous Malaysian gigolo, 32-year-old Hasli Ikhwan Arif Zul Hasli, known online as “Hot Daddy”, and his two female friends, 27-year-old Norshazrina and 24-year-old Norhidayh, were granted a discharge not amounting to acquittal (DNAA) by the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court today for three charges related to promoting sexual activities and services.

This is after the prosecution was not able to execute arrest warrants on the trio despite multiple attempts.

According to BERNAMA, Sessions Court Judge Siti Shakirah Mohtarudin said that based on an investigation diary, the Court found that the prosecution had tried 3 times to locate the accused and failed to execute the arrest warrants. 

Furthermore, the Sessions Court also put on record the fact that their bailors had also failed to attend Court to explain their absence.

Hence, the Court issued a DNAA on the 3 accused until the execution of the arrest warrants.

Earlier in the proceedings, Deputy Public Prosecutor Nidzuwan Abd Latip said that the arrest warrants issued previously to all 3 accused failed to be executed and that the police are still tracking the trio.

He added,

“Notices to the bailors have been served, but they have never appeared to provide any explanation for the absence of the accused,”.

The trio claimed trial for 3 charges back in January

In January, the trio claimed trial for 3 charges involving the promotion of sexual activities and services.

These include advertising prostitution services via the X application under the handle @HOTDADDYXX, an offence under Section 372(1)(e) of the Penal Code, which carries imprisonment of up to 15 years, whipping and a fine if convicted.

The trio was also charged with selling pornographic video recordings under Section 292(a) of the Penal Code. If convicted, they face imprisonment of up to 3 years or a fine or both.

Besides that, they were also charged with possessing obscene materials under Section 5(1)(a) of the Film Censorship Act 2002. A conviction under this provision can land them a fine between RM10,000 and RM50,000, imprisonment of up to 5 years, or both.
