KUALA LUMPUR: Kepong member of Parliament Lim Lip Eng has called for further police action following an alleged mob attack at a restaurant in Cheras.
Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng has called for additional police action in response to an alleged mob attack at a restaurant in Cheras, according to reports. Lim shared a video on social media depicting a man being repeatedly struck with a steel ladle, resulting in bloodied arms. The video suggests the attacker faced a mob of at least 60 individuals.
Lim questioned why only one person had been detained despite the widespread involvement and inquired about the investigation's progress. The restaurant owner, a Chinese national, and two of his workers allegedly sustained injuries during the incident. However, the exact details and motive behind the attack remain unconfirmed. When reached for comment, Cheras district Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Mohd Rosdi Mohd Daus stated that police were aware of the incident and would provide further updates through official channels.
