Three men, including a Japanese national and two Taiwanese nationals, were arrested on Wednesday night after being accused of kidnapping a Chinese man in a house in Seri Manjung. The Manjung District Police Chief, Hasbullah Abd Rahman, said they received a complaint from the 21-year-old victim via WhatsApp around 10:30 PM stating that he had been kidnapped inside the house.

Police arrived at the scene around 12:15 AM and arrested the three suspects aged between 21 to 33 years old. "The victim, who was accused of being kidnapped, was also saved, while preliminary investigation found the motive for the crime was that the victim refused to follow the instructions of the suspects," he said in a statement.

All suspects are now remanded until August 29 for further investigation under Section 342 of the Penal Code and Section (6)(1)(c) of the Immigration Act 1953/63.
