KUALA LUMPUR: Tengku Mahkota Pahang Tengku Hassanal Ibrahim Alam Shah has called for justice for a construction worker allegedly attacked by relatives of the Pahang royal family and a group of individuals last month.
The online portal Sinar Harian reported that Tengku Hassanal has demanded immediate justice for the worker.
In an update on his Instagram Story on Friday (Oct 18), he stated that justice not only needs to be implemented but must also be visibly done.
"He (the victim) is my people (rakyat). Give him justice now. Those who fight for justice will always face opposition from those who do injustice," he was quoted as saying.

On Thursday (Oct 17), it was reported that the victim, known as Alias Awang, 44, expressed disappointment over the lack of action from the authorities regarding the incident.
