According to national news agency Bernama, Wangsa Maju district police chief ACP Mohamad Lazim Ismail said the 22-year-old man was detained at 6:30pm by officers from the district’s Criminal Investigation Division.“Preliminary investigations reveal that the man admitted to using a sharp weapon, a kerambit, to defend himself during the incident,” he said in a statement today.
A kerambit is a traditional weapon originating from South-east Asia, particularly Indonesia and Malaysia. Its distinctive feature is its curved, claw-like blade that resembles a tiger’s claw. Bernama reported that the man is currently under remand until Monday for investigation under Section 6 of the Corrosive and Explosive Substances and Dangerous Weapons Act 1958, while the woman is held under Section 6 of the Immigration Act 1959/63 for having no valid travel documents.
Last Monday, Mohamad Lazim announced that they were searching for a man who had brandished a sharp weapon, believed to be a kerambit, during a dispute at a football match at the KLFA Football Centre.
