POLICE have received three reports on the disrespectful behaviour of British band The 1975 at the Good Vibes Festival 2023 Saturday night.

Selangor police chief Hussein Omar Khan said the Kuala Lumpur International Airport district police headquarters received the reports yesterday.

“Police have summoned the parties involved and the case is being investigated under sections 509 and 504 of the penal code and section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955.

“The public is reminded to refrain from making any speculations that could cause misunderstandings in the community,” he said in a statement last night.

Hussein said police also supported the Communications and Digital Ministry and Sepang Municipal Council’s decision to immediately cancel the The band’s performance was reportedly cut short after frontman Matty Healy was seen performing while holding a bottle of alcohol and slammed Malaysia’s LGBT laws.

Following the incident, Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil ordered the immediate cancellation of the festival, which was supposed to take place until today.

He said the unity government’s stance is clear and there would be no compromise with any party that challenges, belittles, or violates Malaysian laws. – Bernama, July 23, 2023.
