According to news reports, close to 100 protesters gathered in front of the embassy premises, with some holding banners urging authorities to arrest and charge Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) officers who opened fire at the men during the incident at Malaysian waters off Tanjung Rhu beach in Selangor.

Kompas.com reported that protesters then pelted eggs at the embassy premises, which landed on Malaysia's national emblem and the front gate.

The protest was held a day after the body of the man killed in the shooting was repatriated and buried in his hometown in Riau. He was identified as a 50-year-old migrant worker.

The 3am incident happened when the five men allegedly used a boat to ram a Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) patrol boat before trying to attack law enforcement officers using machetes.

According to the police, MMEA officers had to open fire in self-defence.

While police said they are investigating the incident, the Indonesian Foreign Affairs Ministry said two of the men refuted Malaysian authorities' version and claimed that there was no resistance using sharp weapons. - Mkini
