The magistrates’ court here has issued a five-day remand order for an employer alleged to have beaten his two personal bodyguards for fasting.

The remand order on the 44-year-old suspect was issued by magistrate Nur Atikah Zakaria today to assist investigations under Section 324 of the Penal Code for causing injury, Section 506 for criminal intimidation, Section 298 for insulting Islam and Section 307 for attempted murder under the same code.

Earlier, the suspect wearing a blue collar T-shirt arrived at the court compound at about 10am, escorted by policemen.

The businessman was picked up by the police at 8.20pm on Thursday in Kuala Lumpur for allegedly beating his personal bodyguards.

The same court had on Thursday issued a remand order on four men, including a personal bodyguard, to assist in investigations into the incident.
