In a tweet today, Fahmi said he would provide statements to them next Thursday.
He said he was being investigated under Section 504 of the Penal Code for intentional insult and Section 233 of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 for improper use of network facilities.
The two graphics in question were both posted in early April.
“No matter the obstacles, I will continue to fight,” he said. “I am prepared to face any new investigations or allegations, and am prepared to defend all my graphic works.”
The graphic designer was arrested last week for investigations under the Sedition Act, after creating a Spotify playlist that allegedly mocked the Raja Permaisuri Agong over a comment she made on her Instagram account. He was released after a day in remand.
Fahmi was previously charged in 2016 under multimedia laws for his clown caricature of then prime minister Najib Razak.
