MIRI: An Indonesian man was found bloodied, beaten up by strangers and left in an alleyway of Jalan Kwangtung in the wee hours on Thursday morning.
According to sources, the victim in his 20’s, had gone to the area wandering alone, looking out for ‘China dolls’. In the incident around 3am, the victim lost two handphones and cash of RM200. The victim was found shirtless in only long pants.
Unfortunately, he had bumped into his assailants while searching for ladies of the night. He sustained serious injuries when the assailants fled the scene after bashing him up with blunt objects, leaving him writhing in pain.
Fortunately, the Indonesian managed to crawl out from the alleyway and made his way to a nearby budget hotel.
“My colleagues and I were sitting outside the hotel’s entrance smoking, when we heard a voice shouting for ‘help’,” said Mohammad Azri Mohd Nardi, 20, one of the budget hotel’s receptionist on duty telling The Borneo Post yesterday.
Azri and two colleagues rushed to the voice and made the discovery.
“The victim cried out that ‘If you are Muslims please help me’… as we sympathised with his condition and immediately called for the ambulance,” said Azri.
Within a few minutes, an ambulance arrived to take the injured man off to Miri hospital.
