Malaysian sex blog couple told to surrender to police over offensive posting
Malaysian sex bloggers charged under three laws
Sex bloggers Alvin Tan and Vivian Lee have claimed trial to three charges for posting a controversial Ramadan greeting on facebook last week and for the sex video clips they posted online last year.
The couple -- known collectively as Alvivi -- first sparked controversy when they posted photos and videos of them having sex online.
Last week, they drew widespread criticism for posting a picture on facebook of them eating bak kut teh, or pork rib soup, with the words "Selamat Berbuka Puasa" (Happy Breaking Fast) and a "halal" logo.
Alvin Tan Jye Yee, 25, and Vivian Lee May Ling, 24, were charged under the Sedition Act, the Film Censorship Act, and the Penal Code on Thursday after media regulators and the police wrapped up their investigations this week, reports The Straits Times.

Malaysian sex bloggers Alvin Tan Jye Yee and Vivien Lee May Ling were whisked off to prison – he was sent to the Sungai Buloh jail while she was sent to the Kajang jail – after being hit with three charges over their controversial Ramadan "bak kut teh" (a pork dish) greeting on Facebook and pornographic pictures in their blog.
The Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court also came down hard on them by denying them bail.
Tan, 25, and Lee, 24, were jointly charged under Subsection 5(1) of the Film Censorship Act 2002 (Act 620), Section 4(1)(c) of the Sedition Act and Section 298A(1) of the Penal Code.
They were charged with displaying pornographic images on their blog, uploading content that could stir up hostility based on religion and publishing a seditious photograph and comment.
Both claimed trial to the three charges read out to them before judge Murtazadi Amran.
Tan, 25, glowered at the crowd in the public gallery while Lee, 24, had a wrist cast on her right hand.
Asked about the cast, the kindergarten teacher replied: “I got robbed a few weeks ago.”
Earlier, Tan and Lee, who were in the dock, were seen talking to his mother.
Noorin Badaruddin, Ishak Mohd Yusof, Nadia Mohd Izhar and Henry Tan were the public prosecutors (DPPs) while counsel Chong Joo Tian, Wong Kee Them and Adila Kamaruzaman acted for Tan and Lee.
Noorin said offences under Subsection 5(1) of the Film Censorship Act 2002 (Act 620) and Section 298A(1) of the Penal Code were non-bailable and said the prosecution objected to any bail.
“They have a tendency to upload content that stirs up public anger. Thus, we apply for the two not to be bailed until the trial ends,” she said.
Noorin also applied for a joint trial under Section 170 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
In response, Chong said the court had the discretion to allow bail.
He said it was premature to say his clients have the tendency to upload content when the trial had not even started.
He said Tan and Lee were young, and that he was unemployed while she was earning about 900 ringgit (US$281) a month as a teacher.
He added that the court should not be pressured by statements made outside.
Judge Murtazadi granted the prosecution’s application for the three charges to be jointly tried and denied bail.
He set Aug. 23 for mention.
Later, Chong told reporters that they would appeal against the decision not to grant bail.
The pair’s online posting last Thursday caused an uproar among Malaysians, following which the couple replaced the display with a picture of them eating ketupat, rendang and curry puffs (traditional Malay food).
The Facebook page was later shut down.Tan and Lee also apologised for the posting in a 1:22 minute video on YouTube, and said that it was done in humour.
sg was too lenient on them, as usual since they are foreigners
let them taste some medicine from their own country
Malaysia steady!! SG only tekan locals
everytime do liao then apologise, thinking can get away with it
but hor, sorry no cure
and, why he �软�!?!?!!?!?
He paid the price for fame.
Now, he will be enjoying free food, free stay and free security in his own country.
and free fcuk from behind
KUALA LUMPUR: Sex bloggers Alvin Tan and Vivian Lee (pix)have been granted a RM10,000 bail each in two sureties for each of the three charges by the High Court.
Justice Mohd Azman Husin also imposed additional conditions that they surrender their passports, be prohibited from uploading pornographic images, using network communication devices and report to the nearest police station on the first of each month.
On July 18, Tan and Lee were charged with three counts of mocking Muslims and the holy month of Ramadan and posting pornographic pictures on their blog.
Sessions judge Murtazadi Amran had denied them bail, pending their trial on grounds that the case was a matter of public interest.
In their application for a revision, the two claimed that Judge Murtazadi had erred in law by denying them bail as they had no prior criminal records.
They said there was no ground for the prosecution’s submission that they had a tendency to commit the same offence if released on bail. The couple submitted that all their electronic equipment and computers had been seized by the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and if there was a risk of repeating the offence, the court could have set conditions for the bail.
Tan and Lee also said they did not pose a flight risk as their families lived in Malaysia and even if there was, their passports could be impounded.
More to come.

I seriously wonder what this Alvin Tan is thinking.
He lost his scholarship, dropped out of NUS, wasted three years of his life in the process, went to jail for a few days, and is now facing a sedition charge with the prospect of more jail time....
..... all for what? A few cheap thrills from trolling on the Internet?
If he wants to look for even more trouble, well, I have this to say to him:
eh someone go dig out his old posts leh
about how much money he has saved blah blah blah
how malaysia > singapore blah blah blah
how singapore is a sucker offering him scholarship so he has so much money converted into ringgit blah blah blah
and how he will eventually leave singapore after sucking us dry blah blah blah
oh here's one

He is the real life of Naruto the pang sai ma. If manga like Naruto the pang sai can be "popular" and sell like hot cake, what more a real person? Who know if someone might be hired him as "underground consulting troublemaker?" You never know.
All in the name of publicity...xD
