Both sentences are to run consecutively beginning today.
Nik Adit, from Sungai Petai in Pasir Putih, was charged with using an internet application to make and send a picture titled 'Nude Fiesta' which was obscene and false with the intention of hurting the feelings of others on Aug 8, 2014 about 9pm at an address in Jalan Maahad Saniah in Pasir Putih.

The judge allowed Nik Adit bail of RM15,000 in one surety for him to appeal the sentence.
