Ahmad Loqman Hakim represented the prosecution while Mohd Isa was unrepresented. He then paid the fine immediately.

Timeline of events

The brawl broke out after the victim’s mother protested against the price of her RM6 meal, which barely had any ingredients in it.

The victim later got into an argument after Mohd Isa became rude towards his mother and exchanged heated words with him before slamming a box of tissues on the counter.

This then led to Mohd Isa landing a punch on the victim, while several other workers joined in the fight as well.
