Malaysia Court Acquits Namewee on Drug Possession After Prosecution Withdraws Charges
Channel NewsAsia reports Malaysian rapper Namewee was acquitted of drug possession on May 14, 2026, after the Attorney-General’s Chambers withdrew charges related to methamphetamine and sildenafil. The case remains reputationally sensitive due to its linkage to an unresolved investigation into Taiwanese influencer Iris Hsieh’s death, which was reclassified as murder in November 2025.
