"On 10/6, we have arrested four of them. We are looking for 6 the rest, we'll catch them," Jalaluddin Abdul Rahman, Member of Provincial Police Sabah, said.
Julaluddin said those arrested could be charged with disturbing public order.
Masidi Manjun, head of the provincial tourism bodies in Sabah, has posted on Twitter that the legal process against 4 travelers have begun and they will be detained for 4 days.
Earlier, Malaysian netizens and some authorities have criticized Sabah guests nude, that this behavior has caused angry gods, causing seismic 5/6 day.
However, according to Mr Masidi, the idea that the actions of these tourists is the cause of the earthquake had been "misunderstood".
"I never said they actually cause earthquakes, but their actions were against the largest tribe in Sabah," he said.
"The mountain is a sacred and revered," Mr Masidi said.
5/6 quake occurred, when more than 150 climbers are on the mountain to watch the sunrise Kinablu. 18 people are confirmed to have died on the mountain.
