Deputy public prosecutor Nurul Sofea Jaysal did not propose bail for the accused, citing flight risk with his passport being valid until Oct 31, 2026, and pending an Immigration Department review.
You's counsel Revin Kumar said his client was living with a mental health condition.
'My client receives bipolar disorder treatment at a private clinic,' said Revin, adding that You had been remanded for seven days since being detained on July 14.
According to Revin, his client is a third-year student at the university, has been in Malaysia since 2023, with one more year to complete his studies.
He added that You promised to remain in Malaysia to attend all trial proceedings.
'We request bail with additional conditions such as passport surrender and reporting to the police station,' said Revin.
The court then granted bail of RM20,000 with two sureties and imposed an additional condition of having to report to the nearest police station once a month.
He was also ordered to surrender his passport to the court and not harass the victim or any of the prosecution witnesses.
Norazlin then set Sept 17 for the case to be mentioned.
Counsels Muhamad Saifullah Muhamad Azmi, Chew Sin Yee, Mohd Safwan Saleh and M. Partiben were also present in court to hold a watching brief for the victim's family.
