On Sunday (12 March), while taking selfies with fans at the Hari Raya Mega Sale trade show at Singapore Expo, Malaysian celebrity couple Kamal Adli and Uqasha Senrose were reportedly attacked by a man wielding a baton.
The 37-year-old actor was assaulted by the attacker, who left him with head wounds and bruises on his face and cheeks. He was sent to Changi General Hospital, where he got several stitches.
The actress wife of Kamal, Uqasha, told the Malay news site Berita Harian (BH) that they were taking photographs with an aunt in a wheelchair at 9 p.m. when the violent incident occurred.
Instead of seeking a photograph, the man had thrown a baton at Kamal's head after calling out to him.
"Blood was pouring down. Kamal was gravely injured. Kamal awoke because he was curious about his attacker" Uqasha recalled.
The police have apprehended Kamal's assailant after multiple witnesses and stall owners prevented him from leaving.
"Everyone present pursued and apprehended the man. They were perplexed and outraged as to why Kamal was the target of his assault" Uqasha told BH.
She thanked those who assisted her and expressed thankfulness that her husband's life was preserved and that his memory remained unharmed.
