KUALA TERENGGANU: More than 300 rowdy supporters of a political party at Kuala Ibai here abruptly halted nine buses en route into the state.

In the 5am incident Friday, the buses, carrying a total of 350 passengers, were forcibly rerouted to the premises of the Nur Zahirah floating mosque.

Acting on a tip-off, police arrived and dispersed the crowd, escorting all nine buses to Wisma Darul Iman here where family members and friends of the passengers were waiting anxiously.

It was learnt that the buses, several of which were chartered, were carrying mainly female university students who had returned to the state to cast their votes on Saturday.

All students and passengers have been reported to returned safely by 7am.
