Police tracking down 10 suspects to assist in murder, gang fight in Shah Alam

Selangor police are actively searching for 10 men in connection with two separate incidents in Shah Alam last month. Seven suspects are being sought for a fatal fight in Taman Alam Megah that claimed the life of a 23-year-old local man on August 25. Three others are wanted for an attack involving a machete and a possible firearm threat in Taman Sri Muda.

The suspects, aged between 23 and 46, are still at large and are being sought to assist ongoing investigations. Following raids between August 14 and 28, police arrested 21 individuals aged within the same age range and recovered weapons, including seven machetes, two cable cutters, nine cars, and three motorcycles.

Among the 21 arrested, eight have been charged in court under Sections 302 and 149 of the Penal Code, while four others were charged under Section 148 of the same act. The victim in the Taman Alam Megah case had a criminal history involving six drug-related offenses.

Shazeli Kahar, the Selangor Police Chief, suggested that both incidents might be linked to gangsterism, possibly involving different factions. The fight in Taman Alam Megah appears to stem from a rivalry between two secret society groups, while the Taman Sri Muda incident resulted from a misunderstanding. Police vowed to bring all involved individuals to court, showing no tolerance towards gangsterism.
