Malaysian authorities have arrested a man in Petaling Jaya on Tuesday (7th November) for dressing up in a suicide bomber outfit for a Halloween Party.
His costume was made out of white, complete with a fake beard, a chequered towel wrapped around his head and a fake circuit bomb made out of cardboard and plastic bottles around his waist.
A resident at a condominium saw the man and called in the police.
“At about 7.40pm, residents at an apartment in Damansara Perdana came across the man who was dressed as a suicide bomber,” ACP Mohd Zani said, according to the Star Online. “It was for a Halloween party and he was spotted riding the lift.”
The man is being investigated under section 506 of the Malaysian penal code, for criminal intimidation.
