Temple mob: Beat up the firemen!


SHAH ALAM: Shouts of “don’t put out the fire!” and “beat up the firemen! (pukul bomba)” greeted fireman Mohd Sharol Anuar Kamarudin as he climbed down from the fire engine on the early morning of Nov 27 last year.

Mohd Sharol and his colleagues, including Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim, arrived at the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple that morning to answer an emergency call about a fire near the temple.
