Manjung police chief ACP Hasbullah Abd Rahman disclosed that they received a report at 1:54 pm about the incident, which they believe took place at 4:16 am when the complainant heard gunshots from inside his house. Upon discovery around 9 am, four bullet marks were found on the right-side door of his vehicle.

Police have opened an investigation under Section 39 of the Arms Act 1960, and authorities are actively tracking down the suspects. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Manjung district police headquarters or the Operations Room at the provided numbers.
