Police have arrested a man for questioning after a viral video showed him clinging to a moving car in Bandar Seri Alam, Johor
According to Bernama, Seri Alam district police chief ACP Mohd Sohaimi Ishak said the 30-year-old suspect, who tested positive for ketamine, was arrested at Jalan Persisiran Seri Alam at 2am on Sunday, 1 March.
An 11-second clip of the incident has been widely circulated online, showing the man holding onto the vehicle before falling off.
Mohd Sohaimi said the incident occurred at about 3.30pm on Saturday, 28 February, and is believed to have stemmed from a dispute with his ex-wife.
"The argument is believed to have started at a supermarket in Bandar Seri Alam before the man climbed onto the car's bonnet and clung to the front of the vehicle driven by the woman, before falling off," he said in a statement.
The woman reportedly continued driving for about 2km before she was stopped by a group of individuals believed to be the man's friends, who smashed her car window and took her belongings
Mohd Sohaimi said the suspect, who has no prior criminal record, will be remanded for seven days to assist in investigations.
The case is being investigated under Section 384 of the Penal Code for extortion, Section 427 for mischief, and Section 15(1)(a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 for drug use.
