Why Malaysian Police Shot Dead Nigerian Man After Officer’s Hand Was Severed.
Malaysian police officers have shot dead a Nigerian man, identified as Chika Wisdom Osondu, after he allegedly severed a police officer’s right hand during a machete attack in Kepong, Malaysia.
The incident occurred around 7pm on Wednesday at an apartment in Desa Amanpuri, Kepong, according to a Thursday report by Malaysian newspaper, The Star.
The suspect, reportedly armed with two machetes, allegedly stormed out of a residential apartment and attacked police officers, firefighters and personnel of the Health Ministry who were at the scene.
The police chief, Datuk Kahar, said the suspect was later spotted near a playground not far from the apartment, where officers attempted to apprehend him.
He reportedly attempted to attack the officers again, prompting them to open fire in self-defence.
The Nigerian was subsequently rushed to a hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.
The police chief disclosed that a 26-year-old lance corporal sustained severe injuries during the attack, with his right hand reportedly severed by the suspect.
The injured officer was said to be in stable condition and undergoing surgery at Kuala Lumpur Hospital.
Focus Malaysia subsequently identified the deceased suspect as Chika Wisdom Osondu.
