“Initial investigations found that the incident occurred on May 4, 2026, at approximately 1.56 am at a dim sum restaurant on Jalan Klang Lama.

“The complainant stated that he did not know the suspect and only saw the man for the first time during the incident,” he said in a statement today.

According to him, the suspect, a Nigerian national, overturned several tables around the restaurant, causing damage to the premises.

He added that an inspection at the location found that there was a closed-circuit television recording of the incident.

“The case is being investigated under Section 427 of the Penal Code,” he said.
