In a brief text message to FMT, Sarawak police commissioner Mancha Ata said: “The investigation and tracking of the suspects are still ongoing.”
Perak police chief Yusri Hassan Basri also said they are still investigating, but there have been “no additional witnesses or suspects”.
FMT has also reached out to Pahang police chief Yahaya Othman for comment.
Between late March and early April, three KK Mart outlets in Bidor (Perak), Kuantan (Pahang) and Kuching (Sarawak) were attacked with petrol bombs.
The attacks on KK Mart started following a controversy where a few socks bearing the word “Allah” were discovered for sale at its Bandar Sunway outlet. This sparked calls by Umno Youth for a national boycott of the chain.
KK Mart’s founder and a director have since been charged with intentionally wounding the religious feelings of Muslims by selling the socks, while three officers of the vendor, Xin Jian Chang Sdn Bhd, were charged with abetment. All claimed trial.
