BALIK PULAU: A man has been arrested after allegedly threatening to harm his uncle in a dispute regarding the lease of a durian orchard. The 38-year-old man was detained in Sungai Burung today.
District police chief Sazalee Adam said the uncle claimed to have received threats via a voice message, saying he would be harmed if he went to the durian orchard.
“The incident was triggered by an outstanding lease payment of RM12,500, which led to a dispute after the orchard was leased to another party for RM100,000 over five years,” he said.
