A Nepalese security guard is recovering from multiple injuries after being attacked by seven thugs at the Macau University of Science and Technology’s University Hospital on Avenida Wai Long in Taipa late last month.

According to a PSP spokesperson, the victim reported to the police at about 9 pm on 29 July that he had been attacked by seven men whose cars were illegally parked at the hospital entrance. 

The PSP spokesperson said that the victim, who is in his thirties, related that in order to keep the passageway clear, he advised the drivers to move the cars away from the entrance. 

Seven of the car’s eight passengers then attacked the victim, and then fled the scene.

The PSP spokesperson said that the victim suffered multiple injuries, and a hospital sign was also damaged.

Eight local men were summoned for questioning at a police station over the following days. They admitted that they had attacked the victim as they were upset at being told to move their cars.

The eight suspects are aged between 21 and 46. Seven of them were involved in the attack, the PSP spokesperson said, adding that two of the suspects, surnamed Lo and Wong, were suspected of driving without a licence, while the other suspect who was not involved in the fight, surnamed Chan, was suspected of standing in for one of the unlicensed drivers.

The eight attackers have been transferred to the Public Prosecutions Office, where they face charges of causing bodily harm, driving without a licence, damaging property, as well as aiding and abetting the perpetrator of an offence, The Macau Post Daily reported.
