Man slashed in drunken brawl in Nilai
KUALA LUMPUR: A man was seriously injured after he was believed to have been slashed and beaten during a drunken brawl involving a group of men in Bandar Baru Nilai early this morning.
Nilai district police chief Superintendent Abdul Malik Hasim said they received a report about the incident at 6.08am.
"The complaint was lodged by a medical officer from Sultan Idris Shah Hospital in Serdang, Selangor, who had treated a local man in his 30s who arrived with blood on his face and body.
"The victim was immediately admitted to the Red Zone of the Emergency Department for urgent treatment," he said in a statement.
Investigations by the district police headquarters' Criminal Investigation Department found that the victim had been involved in an altercation in front of a fast-food outlet in Bandar Baru Nilai.
"The victim is believed to have been attacked with a parang and a wooden stick by several unidentified individuals.
"He is currently in stable condition, with injuries to his head and legs," he said.
Preliminary investigations found that the fight did not involve elements of gangsterism, personal vendettas or previous conflicts.
"It is believed to have been triggered by a spontaneous altercation while all parties involved were intoxicated.
"This led to a misunderstanding, provocation and a physical fight," he said.
He said the case is being investigated under Section 148 of the Penal Code for rioting with weapons, Section 427 for mischief and causing damage, and Section 326 for voluntarily causing grievous hurt with a weapon.
