Police believe that the attack was triggered by a fight that broke out among a group of friends last week
Sentul police chief ACP R. Munusamy said six men fought among themselves in the club last week, resulting in their expulsion by bouncers.
The management later lodged a police report against three men who started the brawl. Two of them were arrested and charged while the other went on the run, he said.
"We believe the group returned on Wednesday to attack the management because of the police report," he said.
KUALA LUMPUR: Two people are dead while another is in critical
condition following an attack by a group of men armed with parang at a
pub along Jalan Dutamas 1 here.
Sentul OCPD Asst Comm R. Munusamy said the incident occurred at around 11pm on Wednesday.
“We received a call via MERS 999 that a man armed with a parang had
slashed another man in front of a pub at Publika, Solaris Dutamas.
“Based on CCTV footage from the area, two vehicles had stopped in
front of the pub and at least six suspects armed with parang and wearing
masks got out.
“One of the suspects approached the victims, who were sitting in
front of the pub, and began brutally attacking them while the other
suspects were seen going into the pub,” he said when contacted Thursday.
He said two victims, a man and a woman, aged 21 and 23 respectively,
were pronounced dead upon arrival at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital while
another man whose identity has yet to be ascertained is in critical but
stable condition.
“Post mortems on the two victims revealed that they died from multiple incised wounds.
“Following the murders, we arrested six suspects at around 2am on Thursday,” he said.
