Nine Arrested in Ongoing Investigation
Nine men have been arrested after a group of motorcyclists surrounded and attacked a Perodua Myvi near Plaza Tol Batu 13, Puchong.
Serdang District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Muhamad Farid Ahmad said the suspects, aged between 17 and 21, were detained in Puchong and Shah Alam.
Police also seized three motorcycles during the operation. The suspects were brought to court on Tuesday (30 September) for a remand application.
Sinar Harian reported that the case is being investigated under Sections 427 and 279 of the Penal Code, which deal with mischief and reckless driving.
Police Began the Hunt on Monday
Before the arrests, police had launched a search for about 20 motorcyclists believed to be involved.
The confrontation took place at around 4 am on Sunday (28 September), when the 52-year-old driver of the Myvi, a security guard, was on his way home from work.
He lodged a police report later that day at around 10 PM.
According to Kosmo!, the motive behind the attack remains unknown. Police said investigations are ongoing to trace the remaining suspects.
Viral Video of the Incident
The case drew public attention after a 29-second video of the confrontation went viral on social media.
The clip shows the Myvi being boxed in by motorcycles on both sides and in front, preventing it from moving forward.

One rider punched the driver’s side window and kicked the door, breaking the side mirror. The driver was forced to slow down, fearing the situation would escalate.
The viral footage played a key role in triggering police action.
