PETALING JAYA: Police have recorded the statement of one of two surviving victims who allegedly took ecstasy at the PinkFish concert on New Year's Eve.
Subang Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Wan Azlan Wan Mamat said the individual has since been discharged from the hospital.
"The latest one brings the total of those whose statements were recorded to 50," he said when contacted on Thursday (Jan 9).
Only one victim is left and being treated at the hospital, ACP Wan Azlan said.
"We will record the individual's statement once we have the go-ahead from the doctor," he said.
He added that the police are still waiting for the toxicology reports of the victims.
"We are also working to identify those responsible for selling ecstasy pills at the concert.
"We are currently working hard at the investigation," he said.
It was reported that the police recorded the statement of the Pinkfish countdown concert's organiser on Monday (Jan 6) in connection with the death and injuries sustained by concert-goers.
The organiser's statement was recorded at the Subang Jaya district police headquarters.
Four local individuals died after attending the Pinkfish concert in Bandar Sunway, Subang Jaya, on New Year's Eve.
The four were believed to have taken ecstasy.
Selangor police chief Comm Datuk Hussein Omar Khan had stated that the four, along with three others, fell unconscious after using drugs at the concert.
One of the victims, who survived, had already been discharged from the hospital.
He revealed that investigations showed all had consumed ecstasy pills at the event.
Comm Hussein mentioned that some victims might have purchased the drugs before attending the concert, while others might have bought them there.
There are also suspicions that individuals were selling the drug at the concert.
Comm Hussein said the concert organiser had failed to ensure the safety of concert-goers.
"We are also looking at whether the Pinkfish concert was at overcapacity.
"We discovered that 14,000 tickets were sold. Including security and first aid teams at the scene, we believe more than 14,000 people were there that night," he said.
