Cops nab two over death threats against Indonesian band Radja

JOHOR BARU – Police have arrested two men on the grounds of the South Johor Baru district police headquarters here yesterday afternoon to facilitate investigations into death threats made against Indonesian rock band Radja.

Johor police chief Datuk Kamarul Zaman Mamat said the local man, 37, and the foreign man, 48, were arrested around 3.30pm yesterday as part of investigations under Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955 and Section 506 of the Penal Code.

“Police also advise the public to not speculate about the incident as investigations are still being conducted,” he said in a statement last night.

He urged those with information to contact the investigating officer, Noor Azlinda Mohd Khalid at 017-276-5250. 

Media outlets had reported that the Indonesian band claimed they had received death threats due to a misunderstanding with organisers after holding a concert at the Larkin Arena Indoor Stadium. – Bernama, March 13, 2023
