JOHOR BARU, March 13 — Police here have arrested a 30-year-old local man suspected of criminal intimidation using a wooden cane on the Eastern Dispersal Link (EDL) highway.
The arrest took place at 10.30am yesterday in the Skudai area, in response to a video of the incident that went viral on Facebook, said Johor Baru South district police chief ACP Raub Selamat.
