THE Save Seafields Temple Task Force said the injuries sustained by fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim were not due to a mob attack, but from an accident that occurred during the rescue.  

Task force leader S. Ramaji said he had received some video evidence that showed Adib was hit by a reversing fire engine.

He said the driver of the vehicle was not conscious Adib was behind the vehicle.  

“Today, we have some clues. There was a rumour saying that the mob pulled him out of the vehicle and beat him.

“What actually happened was that he stood at the back of the fire engine, and the fire engine reversed so fast it hit him onto a car that was at the back,” Ramaji told reporters.

Ramaji said he got the video, which has since gone viral, from Facebook.

Other task force members also denied attacking the fire engine. – November 28, 2018.

  • Everybody loves & respects the Bomba whose primary job is to save & rescue lives. It is unlikely, even in the heat of the excitement, that those defending the temple could have failed to recognize a Bomba personnel. I'm inclined to believe that Muhammad Adib's severe chest injuries, including multiple broken ribs, were probably caused by a reversing fire truck, a case of sheer bad luck.

  • The root of this incident is to dig out how the hell the mob could come to attack the temple on the first night? Who instructed them?
