POLICE have arrested three Bangladeshi men in connection with a commotion last Wednesday in front of a polyclinic in Taman Prima Saujana in Kajang.

Kajang district police chief Mohd Zaid Hassan said the three, aged between 24 and 32, were arrested in Sentul and Setapak, Kuala Lumpur, at about 1.15am today.

He said based on a report lodged by the owner of the clinic, the incident involved two groups of Bangladeshi men who went to the clinic at about 6pm last Wednesday for a medical check-up.

“The two groups were brought by different agents. While they were in front of the polyclinic, a misunderstanding broke out, resulting in some of them taking out hockey sticks.

“The situation became more tense when the two groups of men began shoving each other. One of them entered the polyclinic and a member of the staff shouted and chased the man out,” he said in a statement today.

A video of the incident went viral on social media.

Zaid said the commotion was caused by the agents jostling for customers for the medical check-up.

No one was assaulted in the incident as was claimed, he said, and advised the public not to spread and be influenced by false news. – Bernama, July 21, 2023.
