KUALA LUMPUR, July 30 — A video going viral now and showing women in a mass fight is from a sports event on May 24, over two months ago, Segamat district police clarified.
The incident took place during a netball championship as part of the Johor State Sports Carnival at the Jementah constituency level, held at Pulapol Segamat’s open hall, Segamat OCPD Supt Ahmad Zamry Marinsah said.

Yesterday, both groups filed police reports detailing the incident and reaffirming their earlier decision to settle the matter without further action.
Ahmad Zamry said that the issue wasconclusively resolved and called for an end to public speculation about the incident.
