Artist-activist Fahmi Reza was arrested for a jealousy-theme Spotify playlist that was allegedly insulting to the Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Hajah Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah, according to police.

Based on the links provided by Bukit Aman CID chief Huzir Mohamed in a statement late last night, the playlist originally featured a portrait of the queen along with the words “This is Dengki Ke?”
