JOHOR BAHRU: The police have arrested two men on the grounds of the South Johor Bahru district police headquarters yesterday to facilitate investigations into death threats made against Indonesian rock band Radja.

Johor police chief Datuk Kamarul Zaman Mamat (pix) said the local man, 37, and the foreign man, 48, were arrested around 3.30 pm as part of investigations under Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955 and Section 506 of the Penal Code.

“The police also advise the public to not speculate about the incident as investigations are still being conducted,” he said in a statement last night.
