Full probe in Low Yat brawl needed, says Bukit Bintang MP

KUALA LUMPUR: Police must carry out thorough and detailed investigation into the fracas near Low Yat Plaza to avoid further incidents said Bukit Bintang Member of Parliament Fong Kui Lun.

He said police must act swiftly as the area is within the Klang Valley’s ‘golden-triangle’, a major tourist attraction in the vicinity.

“I hope the police will beef-up the security within the premises to ensure no more untoward incidents will take place again.

“They (police) must restore peace in the area as more people will come here for their Hari Raya shopping,” said the DAP leader after a walkabout here today.

At 10am, the situation near the vicinity was back to normal with visitors and tourists coming in and out of Low Yat Plaza.

Several policemen were seen patrolling near the affected area.

At least seven people, including three media practitioners were injured in the incident, when a group of over 100 men started brawling near the premises early this morning.
