PETALING JAYA: Thirteen more suspects, including three students, have been picked up on suspicion of having links with a secret society called Gang 24.
A 17-year-old, among the three students, is believed to be the “mastermind” for its activities.
The Star Online quoted Selangor CID chief SAC Fadzil Ahmat as saying the suspects were arrested over the weekend in Klang.
The arrests followed the emergence of two videos that went viral of students from Gang 24 celebrating last month in front of a school.
Fadzil said police would continue operations to curb gang activities in schools.
The daily said since operations began almost two weeks ago, police have rounded up 43 school students, two college students and eight youths.
“We also seized secret society items, including T-shirts bearing the swastika, which is associated with the gang,” Fadzil said.
