The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) received an emergency call after a 45-year-old motorcyclist was slashed with a meat cleaver by another rider yesterday (12 June).
A video of the incident has since gone viral, showing the victim lying on the ground while the suspect is seen holding the weapon. The incident took place on the motorcycle lane of the Federal Highway near Section 13, Shah Alam.
Suspect has since been arrested
According to Berita Harian, Shah Alam District Police Chief ACP Sarudin Samah said the victim was riding to work in Kuala Lumpur when he honked at another motorcyclist who was believed to be blocking his way.
“However, the suspect, a 43-year-old local man, became upset and stopped by the roadside before slashing the victim with a meat cleaver,” he said.
The suspect has since been arrested to assist in investigations under Section 324 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing hurt with a dangerous weapon. If convicted under the provision, the suspect may face up to 10 years in prison, a fine, or whipping.
The victim suffered injuries to his head, the back of his neck, arm and hand. He was taken to Shah Alam Hospital for treatment and is currently in stable condition.
