Technician held for throwing stone at vehicle after road dispute on highway
KUALA LUMPUR: A man in his 30s was arrested by police after allegedly throwing a stone at a vehicle on the Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Expressway in Sungai Besi yesterday.
Police apprehended a middle-aged technician in Kuala Lumpur yesterday following a road incident on the Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Expressway near Sungai Besi. Assistant Commissioner Mohd Rosdi Daud of the Cheras district police identified the suspect as someone who works in the technical field. The incident occurred around 1:15am at Jalan Suasa 3, Sungai Besi, where the technician allegedly hurled a stone at another vehicle.
This act caused damage to the rear windscreen of the targeted car, which had been struck in the afternoon around 2pm the previous day. The alleged motive for the confrontation appeared to be a road dispute, with the suspect claiming that the other driver had cut into his lane. As a result of these events, police obtained a three-day remand order from the magistrate's court for the suspect, extending from today until September 1.
This order aims to aid the ongoing investigation into the matter, which falls under Section 427 of the Penal Code for causing mischief through damage.
