This was the case in a shocking incident where a grocery store owner was brutally attacked with a wooden stick after refusing to extend credit for an alcohol purchase.

According to Sin Chew Daily, the victim, identified as Wang Wen Gui (transliteration), is in his 60s.

His nephew, Wang Zi Tong (transliteration), explained that the attacker had previously tried to buy alcohol on credit but was denied, leading to the violent reaction.

The victim suffered severe injuries, including a fractured hand and a head wound. He was initially treated at Kulim Hospital and later transferred to Penang Hospital. Fortunately, his condition is now stable, and he is conscious and able to speak.

The brutality of the attack has sparked widespread outrage on X, with many netizens condemning it as attempted murder rather than a simple robbery. A photo showing bloodstains on the store floor has further fueled public anger.

According to him, the assailant arrived with an accomplice on a motorcycle. After the assault, the attacker escaped on the motorcycle driven by the accomplice.
