The death of a 21-year-old delivery rider at an underground gig in Malaysia, now being investigated as murder, has highlighted concerns over crowd safety and regulatory flaws in the country’s independent live music scene, industry players say. Police reclassified the case on Sunday, four days after the man died from head injuries sustained at the gig in the southern state of Melaka, where the event was reportedly held without the necessary permits and local authority approval. The reclassification followed an initial investigation into a charge of voluntarily causing grievous hurt using a dangerous weapon or means. Police detained 10 people aged between 18 and 25 on October 18 and 19 to help with the investigation, said Melaka Tengah district police chief Assistant Commissioner Halim Abas.
