KAJANG:Police have arrested 14 men as at noon today in connection with an armed gang fight in Taman Juara Jaya, Batu 9 Cheras on Sunday.
Selangor Criminal Investigation Department (CID) chief Datuk Fadzil Ahmat said the department together with the Kajang and Serdang districts CID have launched an integrated operation codenamed Ops Cantas to track down the remaining suspects.
“The motive for the incident is over control of drug sales territory between Gang 08 Sungai Besi Indah from Serdang and Gang 36 Bukit Belimbing from Kajang.
