A football YouTuber and sports commentator in his 40s suffered serious injuries, including a fractured eye socket, after being assaulted by two unidentified men at a petrol station near Bandar Sri Damansara on Saturday.
Petaling Jaya District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Shamsudin Mamat said police received information about the incident at 7.56pm.
Preliminary investigations found that the victim had stopped at the petrol station to inflate his vehicle’s tyres when he was approached by two men riding a Yamaha LC motorcycle with an unconfirmed registration number.
According to police, the suspects repeatedly assaulted the victim before recording a video of the attack and fleeing the scene.
The victim sustained a fractured eye socket along with several other injuries and is receiving medical treatment.
Shamsudin said the motive behind the assault has yet to be established and efforts are underway to identify and locate both suspects.
The case is being investigated under Section 325 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing grievous hurt.
Police have appealed to anyone with information about the incident to come forward by visiting the nearest police station or contacting the investigating officer, Inspector Muhammad Danish Noor Azri, at 013-6201412.
Shamsudin also urged the public not to speculate or circulate videos or statements related to the incident on any platform, warning that doing so could interfere with ongoing police investigations.
