According to Jasin District Police Chief Superintendent Lee Robert, the group comprising six men and one woman, aged between 20 and 29, was arrested in separate raids conducted across Melaka between 3pm and 6.50pm on Tuesday.
Police also seized several items believed to be linked to the incident, including mobile phones, clothing, footwear, slippers, and a wooden object suspected to have been used during the altercation.
Superintendent Lee said both victims received treatment at Melaka Hospital and are currently reported to be in stable condition as investigations continue under Sections 326 and 148 of the Penal Code.
