According to Oriental Daily, the incident happened around 2.30am on 23rd June at a club in Century Garden, Johor Bahru. A scuffle had broken out among two groups of young people as one party had taken offence at one of the other group accidentally bumping into them. An argument had ensued, which then escalated into a full-blown fight.
