RAWANG: A video of a man being run over by a motorbike and being kicked in the head, allegedly in a dispute over football, is making its rounds on social media and messaging apps.

A message accompanying the video states that the victim was stripped of his trousers, beaten, slashed and kicked by at least 30 alleged gang members as he was on his way to a convenience shop in Country Homes here.

The video shows a man riding a motorcycle over the victim who is lying on the road, before another man approaches and brutally stomps on the head of the already-defenceless victim several times.

Another man is then seen telling both assaulters to back off and leads them away from the victim, just as another man on a motorcycle who is seen gesturing in the 34-second video rides away.

The incident is believed to have occurred at around 1.30am on Thursday (June 28).

The message further states that victim suffered wounds to his hands, back and head.

Gombak OCPD Asst Comm Ali Ahmad confirmed that the incident occurred, adding that the case was being investigated as voluntarily causing hurt during a robbery.

"We have identified all the suspects involved and are tracing their whereabouts.

"We will make arrests soon," he said adding that the victim is in a stable condition.
