While having his statement taken down, the investigating officer found 14 pornographic pictures in his phone, which is obviously illegal in Malaysia. He was charged in Teluk Intan court but pleaded not guilty for possessing pornographic pictures in his phone. Aiman was later released with the bail set at RM2,000, according to Sinchew.
