SINGAPORE: Four expatriates working in Singapore claimed they were assaulted by bodyguards of a royal family in Rawa island off Johor on Friday.
The four men were on holiday for the weekend at Alang's Rawa resort. The attack left one of the them, a German, critically injured and warded at a hospital in Singapore.
According to the Straits Times of Singapore, one of them, a Briton, 28, said the assailants had grabbed his arm and started kicking him.
The man said the royal entourage came in a large group with many security personnel.
Two of them were invited for drinks with a member of the entourage but things took a turn midway through their conversation.
Straits Times quoted the Briton as saying that he saw the German being slapped and assaulted by a group of men from the entourage.
At about 10am on Saturday morning, the group were asked to leave the island. A boat was arranged for them to leave.
Back in Singapore, the German man was placed in intensive care due to bleeding in his brain. He was moved to a normal ward on Tuesday.
The Straits Times said the British High Commission and German embassy were following up on the matter.
