Man Dies After Being Attacked In Malaysia As Heated Facebook Argument Turns Violent

A heated Facebook chat between a 15-year-old schoolgirl and some friends turned deadly when one of them came looking for her together with other family members.

The scuffle that followed led to the death of a man at the Jalan Kurau flats in Jelutong.

Mr Panjavarnam Perumal, 56, died after he was attacked by about six girls, aged between 15 and 20, armed with helmets, at about 11pm on Monday (Aug 22). The Form Two student’s mother, Madam A. Rajeswari, 34, was also injured in the attack.

Madam Rajeswari, a factory worker, said she received a call at 10pm while she was at work from a girl who insisted on meeting her.

“I told her I was at work and would only be home at 11pm. When I got home, I saw a group of girls hanging around on the ground floor.

“I then went back to my flat on the first floor and my daughter told me that the girls were shouting profanities at her and she was afraid,” she said on Tuesday (Aug 23).

Madam Rajeswari said she asked her uncle, Mr Panjavarnam, who lived with her, to talk to the girls and see what was going on.

“They told me that my daughter wrote disparaging remarks about them on Facebook and she should apologise.

“I told them what they were doing was very unbecoming as what they were shouting could be heard by the other residents.

“Two men also turned up to threaten us but they were not involved in the attack.

“We then walked away and they started to beat us with their helmets. I lost consciousness and woke up in an ambulance,” she said.

Madam Rajeswari was discharged from the Penang Hospital after receiving treatment for bruises on her head and body.

George Town OCPD Asst Comm Mior Faridalathrash Wahid said Mr Panjavarnam died on the way to the hospital. A post-mortem showed that he died of a heart attack.

“We arrested three girls and a man, aged between 15 and 23, at the scene and they have been remanded for six days pending investigations.

“The case has been classified as murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code.”

He confirmed that the disparaging Facebook post led to the argument and the deceased, who worked as a cleaner, had tried to stop the argument but was beaten up, kicked and stepped on instead.

Bayi Masih Bertali Pusat Ditemui Ditinggalkan Di Depan Sebuah Rumah

Penghuni tingkat 12 sebuah apartmen di Jalan Jelawat 2, Cheras gempar apabila seorang bayi perempuan masih bertali pusat ditemukan terbaring di atas lantai di hadapan sebuah unit apartmen itu semalam (22 Ogos).

Saksi, S. Kumuthini, yang berusia 24 tahun, berkata beliau mengetahui tentang kejadian itu selepas seorang jiran di tingkat sama mengetuk pintu dan memaklumkan mengenai penemuan bayi di hadapan rumahnya pada kira-kira 2.15 petang.

“Semasa ditemui, bayi itu tidak menangis dan hanya memakai lampin serta dibalut dengan jaket ditinggalkan bersama beberapa peralatan bayi termasuk botol susu dan dua keping lampin pakai buang dalam sebuah plastik di sisi bayi itu,” katanya ketika kepada Bernama.

Kumuthini berkata beliau dan penduduk lain yang berada di tempat kejadian tiba-tiba didatangi seorang lelaki tidak dikenali berusia lingkungan 20-an yang bertanya tentang punca kekecohan berlaku sebelum mengakui bayi berkenaan adalah milik saudaranya.

Menurutnya, lelaki itu kemudiannya tergesa-gesa melarikan diri ke arah tangga apabila mereka meminta nombor telefonnya.

Susulan itu, katanya, wanita yang menemukan bayi tersebut membuat laporan di balai polis berhampiran sebelum bayi itu dihantar ke Pusat Perubatan Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia untuk pemeriksaan kesihatan.

Sementara itu, Ketua Polis Daerah Cheras ACP Chong Kok Sin berkata pihaknya menahan seorang lelaki berusia 25 tahun di sekitar Cheras pada pukul 12.30 malam tadi (22 Ogos) bagi membantu siasatan berhubung kes berkenaan.

“Kami akan melakukan ujian Asid Deoksiribonukleik (DNA) bagi mengenal pasti identiti bayi berkenaan,” katanya.

Katanya, polis memaklumkan Jabatan Kebajikan Masyarakat berkenaan penemuan bayi itu.

Beliau berkata kes disiasat mengikut Kanun Keseksaan kerana membuang bayi yang memperuntukkan hukuman penjara maksimum tujuh tahun atau dengan denda atau kedua-duanya, jika sabit kesalahan.

No Non-Muslim Maids For Malaysian Muslims

PETALING JAYA: Maid agencies are stunned by a “new” directive imposed by the Immigration Department barring them from hiring non-Muslim maids.

Employers have questioned the rationale behind the policy, which department officials said was not new, as they were worried that they may not get any maids at all.

Malaysian Maid Employers Association (MAMA) president Engku Ahmad Fauzi said the policy would limit the supply of maids for Muslims.

“Religion should not be an obstacle. When you work in an office, you don’t base it on religion and likewise, this should not be the case for the maid in the home,” he said yesterday.

He called on the Immigration Department to enlighten people on the rationale of the policy.

A maid agency owner in Selangor who did not want to be named said she had applied for non-Muslim maids for Muslims who wanted them through the Foreign Workers Centralised Management System online but they were rejected.

“When I called, I was told to go to the counter to submit the application. But at the counter, the officers said that the policy was a directive from the director-general,” she said.

The officers said the policy had always existed and if she still wanted to put in the application, they would reject it, she said.

“If they did not allow Muslims to hire non-Muslims from the beginning, why did they allow it earlier?

“There was no circular to inform us about this,” she said, adding that the rejection had been ongoing for two weeks.

She said that if Muslim countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar could hire non-Muslims, why not Malaysia?

Another maid agency owner based in Kuala Lumpur said Malaysia had the policy all along, but some directors-general had allowed some flexibility depending on the situation.

“The policy narrows down the opportunity for Muslims to get maids,” she said.

Faiz Abdullah, 42, a father of three who lives in Petaling Jaya said he had heard from his maid agency about the matter.

He said that he would need to renew his maid’s permit this month and was worried that it would be rejected.

He said it was not easy to get a good and reliable maid these days and asked why it should be based on religion and race.

Business owner Zubir Rahman, 46, a father of three from Shah Alam said he was concerned about the policy because he preferred Filipino maids as they were more reliable.

He said he had three Indonesian maids before and two ran away but all four Filipino maids fulfilled their contracts.

“It would pose a problem for me because to get a good maid these days is very difficult,” said Zubir, whose current maid’s contract would expire in December.
