A man unhappy with a Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) enforcement officer, who had clamped his illegally parked car near a restaurant in Bandar Puteri Puchong, retaliated by spraying the officer’s face with an unknown liquid.

Serdang police chief Megat Mohamad Aminuddin Megat Alias said the incident occurred about 12.40pm yesterday during an operation in the locality.

The MPSJ officer and his colleague spotted a white Honda City parked outside the designated parking area and proceeded to clamp it.

“All of a sudden a husband and wife couple came to scold the officer and acted agressively.

“The husband then sprayed an unidentified liquid on the officer’s face before running off with his wife,” Megat Mohamad Aminuddin was quoted as saying by Berita Harian.

Following the incident, the officer suffered from irritation in his eyes and blurred vision.

Police are in the process of detecting the couple and have also called on them to surrender, Megat Mohamad Aminuddin added.

The case is currently being investigated under Section 324 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing hurt with dangerous weapons or means, and Section 353 for using criminal force to deter a public servant from discharging his duty.

In September, another MPSJ officer, Nor Safuan Nordin, was thrust into the limelight after being caught on video maintaining his cool in an altercation with a woman who shouted and threatened him with her car steering lock, after her vehicle was clamped for illegal parking.

The incident also occurred in Bandar Puteri Puchong.
