IPOH: The Perak Religious Department has dropped the case against singer Siti Noor Idayu Abd Moin for allegedly dressing sexily and encouraging vice by performing at a nightclub.

However, the performer said she would continue to dress the way she always had.

“I don’t think the clothes that I wear are revealing or sexy. It’s not like I was wearing a two-piece (bikini). I still know what I can and cannot do,” she said. *
