Police arrested seven men aged between 17-19 on Tuesday after they were involved in two fights that took place near night club Zouk during the wee hours of Sunday morning.

One of the fights had occurred along Jiak Kim Street at 3:56am whereby a group of assailants had kicked and punched a victim before fleeing. 

While officers were investigating this incident, another police report was filed regarding another attack that occurred along the connecting Kim Seng Road. Another victim was involved in the latter fight. Police believed  the assailants were the same for both cases.

Five of the suspects will be charged in court this week while investigations against the remaining two suspects are ongoing.

The offence of rioting is punishable by a jail term of seven years and/or caning.
