SEMPORNA: A local scuba diving instructor has been arrested after allegedly assaulting and threatening a 34-year-old tourist following a dispute stemming from a diving trip incident.
The altercation traces back to Tuesday (July 22), when both men were on board a boat heading towards the waters off Pulau Timba-Timba for a scuba diving session. During the trip, the tourist’s oxygen tank accidentally toppled over and landed on the instructor’s foot, which caused him to become upset.
