A Bangladeshi man who caused a disturbance at a Kuala Lumpur International Airport terminal is suspected of having mental health issues, according to police. The incident occurred on Thursday at KLIA Terminal 1 around 4:40pm when the man reportedly shouted loudly and disrupted passengers at an airline counter. Terminal security personnel arrived to quell the situation and took the suspect to the Terminal 1 police station for further action.
During a cooling-off period, the 26-year-old man exhibited aggressive behavior and was subsequently admitted to Kajang Hospital's psychiatric ward for treatment. Investigations revealed that the man was set to board a flight back to Bangladesh that evening at 10:20pm. The Bangladeshi embassy was informed of the incident, and police chief ACP M. Ravi advised the public against speculating to prevent the spread of false information that could cause public distress, especially while at KLIA Terminal 1 and Terminal 2.
