Mother, daughter arrested after stray dog operation scuffle injures Muar council officer

MUAR, Nov 1 — Police have arrested a mother and daughter for allegedly obstructing and injuring a female Muar Municipal Council (MPM) enforcement officer during dog-catching operation in Bukit Pasir.

The incident occurred at Taman Bintang Emas around 5.55am on Thursday, later triggering public outcry after photos of the injured officer lying on the pavement circulated widely on social media.

Muar district police chief Assistant Commissioner Raiz Mukhliz Azman Aziz said the suspects, aged 52 and 24, were detained to facilitate investigations into obstructing a public servant from discharging their duties.

“During the operation, the two women had allegedly challenged the actions of the enforcement officers and obstructed them from carrying out their duties by attempting to release the captured dogs.

“A struggle ensued before a female enforcement officer fell when she attempted to defuse the tense situation,” he said in a statement last night.

A medical examination confirmed that the 45-year-old enforcement officer sustained bruising to both arms. She subsequently lodged a police report over the altercation.

“Following the police report, the mother and daughter were later arrested at their residence in Bukit Pasir yesterday to assist with investigations,” he said.

Urine screenings conducted on both women returned negative for illicit substances.

The Magistrate’s Court here has granted investigators a two-day remand order against both suspects.

The case is being investigated under Section 186 of the Penal Code for obstructing a public servant in the discharge of public functions, alongside Section 353 for using criminal force to deter a public servant from performing their duty. Both offences carry a maximum penalty of two years’ imprisonment, a fine, or both upon conviction.

Raiz Mukhliz noted that officers are actively recording witness statements and compiling evidence.

“We advise the public to cooperate during any enforcement operations and refrain from any actions that could obstruct public servants from carrying out their duties,” he said.

麻坡，11月1日讯——警方逮捕了一对母女，她们涉嫌在武吉巴西的一次捕狗行动中阻挠并伤害了一名麻坡市议会（MPM）女执法人员。

事件发生在周四早上 5 点 55 分左右的 Taman Bintang Emas，受伤警员躺在人行道上的照片在社交媒体上广泛传播后，引发了公众的强烈抗议。

麻坡警区主任助理警监雷兹·穆赫利兹·阿兹曼·阿齐兹表示，这两名嫌疑人分别为52岁和24岁，已被拘留，以便调查他们妨碍公务人员履行职责的案件。

“行动期间，这两名女子据称质疑执法人员的行动，并试图释放被捕获的犬只，从而妨碍他们履行职责。

“在一名女执法人员试图缓和紧张局势时，双方发生冲突，她不幸摔倒，”他昨晚在一份声明中说。

经医学检查证实，这名45岁的执法人员双臂均有瘀伤。随后，她就这起冲突事件向警方报案。

他说：“根据警方报告，这对母女昨天在武吉巴西的住所被捕，以协助调查。”

对这两名女性进行的尿液筛查结果显示，她们均未检出违禁药物。

当地地方法院已批准调查人员对两名嫌疑人进行为期两天的还押候审。

本案正根据《刑法》第186条（妨碍公务人员履行公务）和第353条（使用武力阻止公务人员执行公务）进行调查。这两项罪名最高均可判处两年监禁、罚款或两者并罚。

拉伊兹·穆赫利兹指出，警员们正在积极记录证人证词并收集证据。

他说：“我们建议公众在任何执法行动中予以配合，并避免采取任何可能妨碍公务人员履行职责的行为。”
