MELAKA: Police have recorded a statement from the management of a factory at the Ayer Keroh industrial area after a video showing several men wearing pink bracelets went viral.
According to Melaka Tengah district police chief Afzanizar Ahmad, the video showed several men, believed to be foreigners, coming out of their homes to buy groceries at Taman Ayer Keroh Heights here.
He said police recorded a statement from the human resources manager of the factory after a report was received at about 1.50pm yesterday.
