According to him, the case is classified under Section 268 of the Penal Code for intentionally committing a dangerous or harmful act to the public.
“Police are conducting monitoring at the location and to date we are still identifying the individual involved in scattering the nails.

Therefore, Norhizam said, he urges the public who have information to channel it immediately to his department to assist investigations.
In a separate case, Norhizam informed that the Sepang IPD Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division (BSPT) will take action against motorcyclists who disturb public peace in the early morning in the Salak Perdana area.
He stressed, information has been received by the police and initial action has been taken including patrols in the area.
“We will track down this group because there is concern about the misuse of vape (electronic cigarettes) containing prohibited substances.
“We hope parents will play their role to ensure their children do not roam around in the early morning to avoid any mishaps,” he said.
He added, action against these riders can also be taken under Section 42 of the Road Transport Act 1987, in addition to investigations against parents.
