POLICE are looking for the individuals involved in abducting two male workers, who are Indian nationals, from a restaurant in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur, this afternoon.

Brickfields district police chief ACP Anuar Omar said the two abducted men were allegedly former workers of a restaurant in Pandamaran, Klang.

He said in the incident about 2pm, the restaurant manager in Brickfields was approached by several men who forcefully took away the two foreign workers from the premises.

“Police investigations reveal that the two workers were allegedly former workers at a restaurant in Klang who ran off after the employer failed to pay their salaries,” he said in a statement today.

“One of the victims was said to have lodged a police report in Klang last Saturday against the errant employer, following which they sought refuge at a restaurant in Brickfields.”

The case is being investigated under Section 363 of the Penal Code for abduction.

Today, a 19-second viral video from a CCTV recording shows a number of individuals forcefully dragging away the two Indian nationals from a restaurant in Brickfields. – Bernama, April 13, 2021.
