00:00 A petrol bomb was thrown at a KK Mart outlet in Kuching yesterday, the third such attack
00:06 on the convenience store chain in a week.
00:09 Kuching Police Chief Ahsmon Baja said the attack was reported by a 25-year-old man who
00:15 worked at the store's Janan Sato branch.
00:18 In his report, the worker said a glass bottle filled with kerosene was thrown at some boxes
00:23 placed on the five-foot way of the shop.
00:26 KK Mart branches in Bidor, Perak and in Kuantan, Pahang were attacked with petrol bombs last
00:32 week, leading to the sultans of both states issuing strongly worded statements.
00:37 The petrol bomb thrown at the shop in Bidor on March 26 failed to explode, while the attack
00:43 in Kuantan on March 29 set several items on fire but was immediately extinguished by KK
00:49 Mart workers.
00:50 KK Mart has been mired in controversy since March 13 after songs with the word "Allah"
00:56 were discovered at its Bandar Sunway outlet, sparking calls by Amno youth for a national
01:01 boycott of the chain.
