The four people who died after using drugs at the Pinkfish countdown concert in Malaysia fell unconscious shortly before they received treatment, said Selangor police chief Hussein Omar Khan.
He said the victims were given treatment by the first aid team at the concert before being taken to the hospital. Three other people who reportedly used drugs there survived.
“The incidents where the victims fell unconscious occurred between 10.45pm and 3am,” Datuk Hussein told a press conference at the Selangor police headquarters on Jan 3.
“Investigations showed all of them consumed Ecstasy pills at the concert.”
Mr Hussein said some of the victims might have bought the drugs before going to the concert, while others might have bought them there.
