Selangor police chief Shazeli Kahar said the investigation paper into the brawl at Taman Medan Jaya is still being completed. SHAH ALAM: A brawl at Taman Medan Jaya in Petaling Jaya, which was captured in a video that has gone viral, stemmed from dissatisfaction with the housing management’s decision to cut off electricity supply, rather than racial tensions.
Selangor police chief Shazeli Kahar said an investigation found that the electricity supply to business premises suspected of operating illegally had been cut off.
“There are no racial issues involved, just dissatisfaction (regarding the electricity cut),” he said at a press conference at the Selangor police headquarters here today.
Shazeli said that a man's request on Oct 9 to have the supply reconnected was ignored. The man then brought along a few friends to confront the management and residents of the area.
