No racial, gang-related elements in Desa Tun Razak brawl, say cops
Cheras police chief Rosdi Daud says the incident arose from a business turf dispute, but investigations are ongoing.
Police investigations in Desa Tun Razak, Sungai Besi, have concluded that a group brawl outside a cafe last night was not racially or gang-related. Cheras Police Chief Rosdi Daud stated that the incident appears to have stemmed from a business turf dispute, though the full cause is still under investigation. Nine individuals, ranging in age from 16 to 44, have been arrested to aid in the inquiry, including a woman.
Police seized items that may have been used in the altercation. The two individuals aged 32 and 44 were identified as the primary suspects, and all nine were remanded for one to three days. Six of the arrested individuals had prior criminal or drug-related convictions. The case is being handled under Section 148 of the Penal Code for rioting with weapons.
Kuala Lumpur Police Chief Fadil Marsus confirmed that a team from Sungai Besi police station's mobile patrol unit and Cheras police headquarters' criminal investigation division conducted the arrests near the scene after receiving information about the fight around 11pm.
