Raub policeman suffers broken nose, facial fractures after alleged attack while responding to noise complaint

A police officer in Raub, Pahang, sustained multiple facial fractures after being allegedly attacked by two men while responding to a noise complaint about loud music, according to Berita Harian. Corporal Nik Mohd Farid Nik Pa sustained fractures to his left cheekbone, area below his left eye, a broken nose, bruising and bleeding around the eye, and soft-tissue injuries to his right knee.

He is undergoing further examinations to determine if his right ankle was also fractured. The incident occurred around 2:45am in Kampung Pamah Kulat, Dong, following complaints from residents about two men playing loud music by the roadside. The suspects, aged 26 and 30 and Myanmar nationals working at a plantation, were intoxicated and reportedly became angry after being reprimanded for their behavior, leading to the assault on the police officer.

The two suspects were detained shortly after the incident, with no weapons used in the attack. Police are investigating the case under Section 353 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum penalty of two years' imprisonment, a fine of up to RM10,000, or both.
