Sibu cops arrest trio allegedly linked to ‘public humiliation’ of youths


SIBU: Police here have arrested three locals who were allegedly involved in the beating of two youths in Kuching - an incident caught on video that has gone viral online.

All three were related - a stepfather, a female and her mother. 

Details are scant at the moment, but police said the trio were picked up at around 9pm Monday at Rejang Park.

At least two videos of a “public humiliation”, which occurred at a shopping mall on Sunday night, had been uploaded online.

The first, a one-minute-13-second clip, was uploaded Monday afternoon, quickly attracting hundreds of shares and comments on social media.

A second video posted on several different Facebook group pages, taped from a different angle, had also attracted similar levels of attention.

Both videos show two young males being intimidated, shouted at, slapped and punched by burly men.
