A MALAYSIAN TOPLESS MODEL TO UNDERGOES MENTAL EVALUATION
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - A woman who had stripped herself after failing to pay for eating chicken rice, was today released from the Magistrate’s Court in Kuala Lumpur after her brother posted bail of RM7,000. 
Former model, Persana Avril Sollunda, charged in the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court for allegedly committing a lewd act, was released from remand yesterday after bail was posted.
Magistrate Siti Radziah Kamarudin also imposed several conditions for her release.
Persana was required to surrender her passport to the court and to report to the nearest police station once every fortnight. She was also prohibited from leaving Peninsula Malaysia.
Charged in the Kuala Lumpur Magistrates Court on April 28 under section 294 (a) of the Penal Code for allegedly committing a lewd act, Sollunda was remanded for eight days at Kajang Prison until Monday when bail of RM7,000.00 was posted by her brother, Bernama reports.
She was accused of going topless in Petaling Street in the heat of an argument six days earlier. A video of the incident went viral on social media prior to her arrest.
- It is believed that relatives were making arrangements to take her to the Sungai Buloh hospital for a psychiatric evaluation.
- Persana is believed to have undergone psychiatric treatment previously and was reported by The Star to have been warded at a psychiatric hospital in Kota Kinabalu.
- A video clip released appeared to indicate that Persana was unwell and disoriented upon her release by the court.
WOMAN STRIPS TO AVOID PAYING FOR CHICKEN RICE IN MALAYSIA?
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - An unidentified woman stripped off her
clothes to avoid paying for a meal worth around RM18 in Petaling Street.The woman went to a chicken rice restaurant with a man around 3pm on Thursday, Apr 23.
A nearby stall owner identified only as Wong said the woman had two plates of chicken rice before trying to leave without paying.
"When the restaurant operator tried to stop her, she
denied having eaten there."However, she was shown a CCTV recording of her eating in the restaurant, so she started stripping to avoid paying," said Wong, who runs a jewellery stall beside the restaurant.
A video of the woman taking off her top was uploaded on YouTube a few hours after the incident but has since been taken down.
Witnesses said the woman's companion, described as a Caucasian, got into a scuffle off camera with the restaurant operator when she was not allowed to leave.
The duo reportedly fled when policemen arrived at the scene.
