KANGAR: A mechanic who is believed to have vandalised two cars belonging to Pakatan Harapan's Indera Kayangan assemblyman Gan Ay Ling resulting in a cracked windshield and dent in the front fender would be remanded for four days starting Tuesday (March 26).

Kangar OCPD Asst Comm Yusharifuddin Mohd Yusop said the remand order for the 36-year-old suspect who was arrested at his place of work, a motorcycle workshop here, at about 4pm on Monday (March 25) was issued by Magistrate Nurshahida Abdul Rahim at a Kangar Magistrate's Court.

"Initial investigations revealed that the suspect has been causing mischief to Gan through telephone calls and WhatsApp messages,” he said in a statement Tuesday.

On Monday, media reports said the suspect from Sabak Bernam, Selangor, was detained at the motorcycle workshop by police at about 4pm.

ACP Yusharifuddin said his team had received a report about the incident from the assemblyman at 9.22am Monday after her car had a crack on the left side mirror while her other car had a dent on the driver’s side fender.

The case is being investigated under Section 427 of the Penal Code. - Bernama
