Singer Shila Amzah has lodged a police report, claiming she was threatened by a male rock singer during a concert rehearsal, reported mStar – The Star’s Malay-language portal.
According to sources, the incident took place on Thursday (July 10) just after Shila completed a performance rehearsal at Stadium Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur.
The male singer allegedly approached her and shouted in a threatening manner, though the cause of the confrontation remains unclear.
He reportedly yelled: "Aku dah lama cari kau. Tahulah apa nasib kau nanti" (I’ve been looking for you for a long time. You’ll see what will happen to you).
Many witnesses were said to be present at the time of the incident.
Feeling threatened, the 34-year-old singer filed a police report the same day.
She later shared on Instagram: “Crazy how people with such experience choose to be unprofessional. A police report and restraining order in process.”
Police confirmed they received the report at 5.30pm at the Dang Wangi Police District.
The case is being investigated under Section 506 of the Penal Code for criminal intimidation.
Kuala Lumpur deputy police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Mohamed Usuf Jan Mohamad said on Friday: “The investigation paper was opened following Shila's report. Police have taken two statements to date.”
He added: “There was no physical contact. The investigation is ongoing.”
