Malaysia Arrests ISIS Suspects For Grenade Attack On Bar In June

Malaysian police have arrested nine militants, including two suspected of carrying out a grenade attack, claimed by Islamic State group, at a nightspot on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur in June, the country's police chief said on Saturday.

A known Malaysian ISIS fighter in Syria, Muhammad Wanndy Muhammad Jedi, had said in a posting on his Facebook page that the group had carried out the June 28 attack on a bar in the Puchong neighborhood that wounded eight people.

If the claim was genuine it would have been the first attack by ISIS on Malaysian soil.
