The six UM students had held a silent protest with placards condemning Najib who was meeting supporters at a restaurant near the UM campus in Kuala Lumpur after Friday prayers today.
The six were confronted by a group led by Umno supreme council Lokman Noor Adam. One of the six was assaulted.
Maszlee urged the authorities to take action if there were elements of criminality. He did not mention Najib by name.
Lokman had blamed the incident on DAP supporters and said the students should consider themselves lucky that Umno leaders prevented them from being roughed up further. - Mkini
