IPOH: Hanya kerana tidak berpuas hati dengan harga upah membaiki kasut ditawarkan, sekumpulan pelajar warga asing dari Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP) di Seri Iskandar, bertindak biadab apabila membelasah tukang kasut terbabit yang ketika itu sedang menjamu selera di sebuah restoran, malam kelmarin.
Ketika kejadian kira-kira jam 8.45 malam itu, mangsa dikenali sebagai Zalmi Abdul Ghani, 35, sedang menjamu selera di sebuah restoran berhampiran kedai membaiki kasutnya di Taman Maju, Seri Iskandar apabila tiba-tiba diserang 10 hingga 12 pelajar Mesir yang menaiki dua kereta.
“Ketika itu saya makan malam bersama seorang rakan apabila tiba-tiba kumpulan pelajar berkenaan meluru ke arah kami dan terus menyerang menggunakan kayu tanpa sebarang amaran.
“Saya dan rakan hanya dapat mempertahankan diri menggunakan tangan bagi mengelak mereka memukul bahagian kepala.
“Serangan itu berlaku beberapa minit sebelum kumpulan pelajar berkenaan melarikan diri menaiki dua kereta. Menyedihkan, tiada seorangpun penduduk tempatan membantu kami sebelum saya bersama rakan mendapatkan rawatan di Hospital Changkat Melintang,” katanya ketika dihubungi Harian Metro, semalam.
Menurut bapa kepada empat anak itu, dia berjaya mengenal pasti seorang daripada penyerangnya kerana dua hari sebelum kejadian iaitu pada Selasa lalu, suspek datang membaiki tiga pasang kasut di kedainya.
“Saya mengenali suspek adalah pelajar UTP kerana dia selalu datang ke sini. Pada Selasa lalu, suspek datang ke kedai saya untuk membaiki tiga pasang kasutnya yang rosak di bahagian tapak. “Dia bertanya mengenai upah dan saya beritahu upah menjahit keliling tapak dua pasang kasut itu ialah RM30 iaitu RM15 sepasang.
“Manakala saya mengenakan upah RM3 bagi menjahit tapak sepasang lagi kasutnya yang rosak sedikit tetapi suspek naik angin dengan menyatakan harga itu mahal dan minta dikurangkan kepada RM20,” katanya.
Zalmi berkata, dia memberitahu suspek supaya ke kedai membaiki kasut berhampiran untuk meminta harga berkenaan. “Suspek kemudian beredar tetapi kira-kira 10 minit kemudian, dia datang dan memaksa saya membaiki juga kasutnya pada harga RM20,” katanya.
Menurut Zalmi, ketika suspek datang kali kedua ke kedainya, terdapat pelanggan lain membaiki kasut dan melihat sikap suspek yang mendesak dan langsung tidak menghormatinya, dia meminta suspek beredar.
“Ketika itulah suspek menghambur kata-kata kesat dalam bahasa Inggeris tetapi saya tidak mempedulikannya.
“Namun saya hilang sabar apabila suspek menjerit ‘f** Malaysia’. “Saya yang hilang sabar bertindak memegang tangan suspek dengan seorang lagi rakan dan memberi amaran supaya tidak berkata demikian,” katanya.
Menurutnya, suspek kemudian menaiki keretanya dan selepas membuat pusingan U, dia berhenti di depan kedainya sebelum membuka tingkap dan memberi amaran akan datang semula sambil menunjukkan isyarat lucah.
“Perkara paling mengecewakan saya ialah sikap pengurusan UTP yang memujuk saya supaya menarik kembali laporan polis pada malam sama hari kejadian kerana tidak mahu kes itu dibesarkan,” katanya.

Assalumu Alikom/hi Dear friends and colleagues,
Off course all of you have heard of the incident that happened last
week in Taman Maju. So, as Egyptian, I felt assaulted by this Metro
newspaper and with the suspicious looks that changed from friendly to
unfriendly from some people.
So here's the true story, and for you who really know will know I am
not bluffing here,
Few days ago before the incident, my Senior Mohamed went to a cobbler
asking to fix his shoe, the guy took it and promise to fix on time,
later on, my friend came back to take his shoe back ALONE! And the guy
asked for 30 RM which is too much if you know, normally just 5 RM,
anyway... My friend refused to pay this cost and asked to reduce, and
because he had a high-pitch voice and muscles body, the cobbler felt
afraid and raised his knife in front of his face and threatened to
hurt him. So yeah, my friend cursed him and went back ALONE!.
He later on told the story to another Egyptian and they went back same
day to fix this issue for good, And when they went back they were
surprised that the cobbler still angry with his knife and when the 2nd
Egyptian tried to calm him down, he attacked him with 3 stabs in his
forearm, And later on you'll see.
They went back afraid but mad! Those 2 Egyptians are like gym guys and
practice regularly and when the re-told what happened to their gym
friends! They insisted to go with them and either communicate with the
guy or fight with the guy! (They were mix of international and not
sure but I think there was 1 local). And when they went there, one
thing led to another and a fight started between the cobbler and his
friend and those UTPians.
The International UTPians may have cause some damages to his shop!
Then they went back after the other shop resident started to be
attention ed of the noise! And the cobbler went after them but the UTP
security stopped them ( fact & you can ask head of security).
That's all so far!
Concerns:
1- Are Egyptians.. Bully people? No we are not! Malaysia has been my
2nd home for 3 years now and I never saw something like that before!
2- Why did they send people to whack the cobbler and his shop? They
went to speak, but the guy took to a whole new level.
My Doubts:
1- 1st of all, I know that this newspaper Metro is a tabloid which
means don't expect they will write the truth! They want to create a
big bang.
2- The cobbler or the newspaper said 12 Egyptians! Well, Just 2 and
other Internationals went in his favor!
3- Do you think my senior would just go and kick his ass for nothing!
Why! We'r well educated people not bullies or attackers! so wth
4- People have been passing the link up to 150 people per email!
What's wrong with you people! IF YOU ARE MUSLIM DON'T YOU KNOW THIS
VERSUS:
(Quraan - Arabic Version)
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن جَاءَكُمْ فَاسِقٌ بِنَبَإٍ
فَتَبَيَّنُوا أَن تُصِيبُوا قَوْمًا بِجَهَالَةٍ فَتُصْبِحُوا عَلَىٰ
مَا فَعَلْتُمْ نَادِمِينَ
( سورة الحجرات , Al-Hujraat, Chapter #49, Verse #6)
(Translation - English Version)
O ye who believe! If a wicked person comes to you with any news,
ascertain the truth, lest ye harm people unwittingly, and afterwards
become full of repentance for what ye have done.
(Translation - Bahasa Version)
Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Jika datang kepada kamu seorang fasik
membawa sesuatu berita, maka selidikilah (untuk menentukan)
kebenarannya, supaya kamu tidak menimpakan sesuatu kaum dengan perkara
yang tidak diingini dengan sebab kejahilan kamu (mengenainya) sehingga
menjadikan kamu menyesali apa yang kamu telah lakukan.
So why don't you research a bit first before you fasten into sending
wrong info and creating conflict between locals and Egyptians whom by
the way is one of your course mates and you might be hurting their
feeling! I am just saying!
This newspaper is skank! And all of you know it! So why are you still
believing it!
I am not saying the 2 TWO Egyptians might not be wrong!, They might be
wrong Yes and if they were proven wrong, they should be punished
whatever it takes! But it's not our decision, there's local Police
invistagating!
If I wish to leave you with anything! I would say GOD BLESS US ALL :)
