The 28-year-old manager of a restaurant along Jalan Datuk Onn Jaafar was slashed by three men armed with a parang on Friday 2am.

It started when last month, the three men together with seven others had gone to the restaurant for a meal. A quarrel between the manager and the men broke out when the men refused to pay the bill.

On Friday night the manager angered the men when they were at the restaurant. The men returned several hours later with a parang and attacked him.

The victim sustained slash injuries on his right hand and has been admitted to the Ipoh Hospital.

No arrests have yet been made.
