Perth man claims Bali night club security responsible for brutal bashing
A Perth man on holiday with his pregnant fiance in Bali is recovering after allegedly being attacked in a notorious nightclub.
The 33-year-old was partying at Kuta’s Sky Garden nightclub when he was allegedly attacked following a confrontation with a Balinese pick-pocket, according to News Corp.
The man, who did not want his named used, was allegedly targeted by "several" security guards, who allegedly handcuffed him and kicked him in the head.
The cameraman who conducted the interview delayed releasing it until the man had been treated and returned to Australia.
The man was allegedly attacked on April 2.
The man claimed his phone was stolen and he was left ‘bruised and bloodied’ on the street.
“They handcuffed me and beat the s*** out of me, that's all I remember. They were security guards at Sky Garden,” he said in a video.
His injuries were treated during emergency surgery.
It’s believed he required plastic surgery to his nose and stitches to a deep cut on his eyebrow.
Bali police have launched an investigation into the incident.
It’s reported the night club’s security is manned by local gangs.
The Sky Garden contains eight separate pubs and clubs.
It’s reported Bali police have noted a spate of attacks on tourists from security guards within the club.
Police claim they have arrested several security guards following attacks.
