Setia Alam Shooting: NCID To Assist In Identifying Suspect’s Associates

Bukit Aman: The Bukit Aman Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (NCID) will work together with the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and Selangor Police to identify those believed to be associates of the suspect involved in a shopping mall shooting incident in Setia Alam on Saturday. Its director, Datuk Seri Khaw Kok Chin, said NCID is currently tracking them down.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Khaw mentioned at a press conference in Bukit Aman that whether the suspect was under the influence of drugs when committing the crime can only be confirmed after he is arrested and a screening is conducted. Preliminary investigations by the police revealed that the suspect was believed to have fired eight shots in the mall because he was angry after being told to move his items.

The suspect has been described by police as having fair skin and having 11 prior records linked to drug and criminal offences. The case is being investigated under Section 3 of the Firearms (Increased Penalties) Act 1971 and Section 307 of the Penal Code.
