'I did everything I could to save her': Namewee on influencer's death


KUALA LUMPUR: Rapper Wee Meng Chee, better known as Namewee, says he did everything he could to save Taiwanese influencer Hsieh Yu Hsin.

In his first public statement since being released on police bail over the investigation into her death, he said he was questioned by multiple teams, the Straits Times reported.

“I saw a human being die before my eyes for the first time.

“I did everything I could to save her, but nothing could be done.

“This image will remain in my mind forever,” Wee was reported as saying in a Facebook post today.

He said that in the first two days of detention, he was questioned by six different police teams from various departments, with the longest session lasting 15 hours.

He said he was released after nine days in detention.

“This was the longest I’ve ever been detained.

“They recorded my statement using various methods and employed numerous technological tools to conduct a thorough investigation.

“Their work was meticulous and highly professional,” he said.

He was released on police yesterday while authorities await the full post-mortem report in the investigation into Hsieh’s death.

She was found dead in a hotel room in Jalan Conlay on Nov 4.
