The Kasang Kulim Zoo manager, Desrizal, apologized over social media and said that Arifin broke the zoo's safety protocol by venturing past the security barrier in an attempt to get a video of the animal. The orangutan's name is Tina.

"What happened on Monday afternoon: the visitor jumped into the guardrail of the orangutan cage to take a video without the officer’s permission," the manager said. "The visitor has violated the rules by jumping over the guardrail and kicking the orangutan."
