Myanmar national dies after stomach gutted open in fight

HULU SELANGOR: A Myanmar national died after his stomach was viciously gutted open, believed to have been killed in a fight at a farm workers’ house at Sungai Gumut in Kampung Sungai Serian in Kalumpang here yesterday.

Hulu Selangor district police chief, Deputy Superintendent Mohd Asri Mohd Yunus said that the cause of the incident was believed to be due to a misunderstanding while drinking alcohol.

He said that the 29-year-old victim was confirmed to have died at the scene of the incident, sprawled with his stomach gutted open.
