The prosecution was led by deputy public prosecutor Rifaie Mohamed, while the two were represented by lawyer Y Yogeswaran. The prosecution proposed bail of RM10,000 each, with the additional condition that they report to a police station. However, Yogeswaran requested a lower bail amount, saying Ooi, who made RM2,500 per month as a durian trader, was divorced and supporting one child. She added that Ang had to support two children with the RM2,200 a month he earned as a painter. The court allowed bail of RM7,000 each, with the additional condition that they report to a nearby police station on the 15th of every month, and set July 1 for re-mention of the case.
