Three stores hit with molotov cocktails after pictures of socks deemed offensive by Muslims shared on social media
Three stores belonging to a Malaysian minimart chain that sold socks carrying the word “Allah” have been targeted with molotov cocktails over the past week, in a rare case of such violence.
One of KK Super Mart’s stores in Kuching, the capital of Sarawak, in Malaysian Borneo, was hit by a molotov cocktail on Sunday, a day after a separate attack on a store in Pahang on the east coast of peninsular Malaysia. On 26 March a store in Perak was also targeted with a petrol bomb, though it did not ignite, according to local media. No one was injured in the incidents, which are being investigated by police.
