PETALING JAYA: Police have arrested 15 people who recently used a gas stove to cook while gathered at a petrol station in Genting Highlands, Pahang.

Pahang police chief Yahaya Othman said the 10 men and five women were arrested after presenting themselves at the Bentong district police station yesterday, Harian Metro reported.

He said they were released on police bail after giving their statements.

“The investigation papers are being completed, and statements from four witnesses have been recorded to assist with the investigation,” he was quoted as saying.

When it comes to skincare, the first thought on our minds would be beauty products such as serums, creams, and masks. However, beauty experts and even researchers have stated that drinking more water can be just as crucial for your skin's health.
“We will also refer the investigation papers to the deputy public prosecutor for further instruction.”

Last Wednesday, Bentong police chief Zaiham Kahar said police had received a report about a viral video clip on social media showing a group of people cooking at the petrol station.

In a Bernama report, Zaiham said initial investigations found that the 50-second clip was uploaded on Monday by vehicle owners who took part in the gathering.

He said police received complaints that vehicle owners often gathered at the petrol station, which he said disturbed public order and caused a nuisance to other motorists passing through.
