Youths shout 'sah lak kau' as they slash 20 bystanders with parangs

Eight youths, armed with parangs and metal rods, went around attacking 20 innocent bystanders last night (Nov 8) at Bukit Panjang.

Six of the bystanders were conveyed to the hospital, with four of them discharged for minor injuries. The other two suffered slashes to their neck and back. The victims were aged between 14 to 20 years old.

According to eyewitnesses, there were seven or eight attackers. They carried parangs and metal rods. Before attacking, they shouted 'sah lak kau' which means '369' in the Hokkien dialect.

The attackers were all very tall and of big build, with dark complexions. It was also reported that one of those involved in the skirmish but escaped unhurt was an 8-year-old boy who had encountered the men after a game of football.

The father of one of those injured said, "After the Downtown East case, I asked my son to go home earlier. I did not expect my son to be attacked even when he went out just to play football." LINK
