“Initial investigations revealed that when the couple were leaving on a motorcycle, the suspect rammed his car into the bike.

“The suspect then approached the couple, and stabbed the widow’s boyfriend in his left chest using a sharp weapon,” he said.

State deputy police chief Deputy Commissioner Datuk A. Paramasivam said that the suspects attempted to escape when they spotted the police and started shooting when ordered to stop their car.

Harrowing experience for mum and daughter in robbery

By Ushar Daniele
Published: December 2, 2014 07:14 AM

PETALING JAYA, Dec 2 — A mother and her two daughters had a harrowing experience after two robbers broke into their house in Pasir Puteh, Kelantan on Sunday.

The robbers assaulted Hat Tema Mat Zin, 58, and one of them tried to rape her daughter, Nur Shafiqa Lah, 22, in the 2pm incident.

Investigations revealed the duo broke into the house while Shafiqa was in the shower. Tema was in the living room while her other daughter, 18-year-old Nur Shafatini Lah, was in her room.

The robbers, wearing helmets with visors, attacked the mother upon entering the house in Wakaf Berangan Sri Aman.

“One of them kicked open the bathroom door as Shafiqa was in the shower and dragged her out to the kitchen where her mother was writhing on the floor in pain,” a police source said.

Shafiqa was told by the robbers to remove her mother’s ring.

“After she removed the ring, one of the men took her to a room upstairs and attempted to rape her but was called back to the living room by his accomplice,” the source said.

Single mother secretly recorded in the nude

KUALA LUMPUR: Another nude video case was reported to MCA’s public services and complaints bureau despite many such incidents being highlighted in the media.

The latest involves a 37-year-old single mother from Petaling Jaya, who now lives in fear after her ex-boyfriend secretly recorded her in the nude while she was showering on three occasions on Oct 1, 5 and 7.

The woman, who runs a massage parlour business and wants to be known as Jong, said she knew her boyfriend, who is also in the massage business, since 2007 but they broke off last April.

She claimed that following the break up he continuously disturbed her business causing her to lose customers.

“He also threatened to continue doing so if we did not get back together,” said Jong, adding she eventually did so in August to save her business.

However, on Nov 6, she discovered that her boyfriend had secretly recorded her showering naked using his smartphone after he accidentally left it in her car.

Shocked and worried, she kept the phone and lodged a police report on Nov 7 besides seeking the help of the complaints bureau’s head, Datuk Seri Michael Chong.

State CID chief SAC Mazlan Kesah said the police dog unit (K9) found the victim, K.Poobalan, dumped at an oil palm estate in Taman Impian Alma, Bukit Mertajam, around am.

He said police came to know of the incident after a taxi driver lodged a police report.

Mazlan said the taxi driver claimed to have picked up the three men at a bus stop in Jalan Permatang Tinggi around 5.30pm on Thursday, who told him to take them to Taman Seri Juru.

When they reached the area, Mazlan added, the trio asked the driver to wait for them while they went to look for a friend.

The taxi driver then claimed that after half-an-hour, the suspects returned with a man, whom they forced into the cab and beat up with a stick inside the cab.

One of the three men then brandished a knife to the driver’s neck and asked him to drop them off at Taman Impian Alma, the taxi driver claimed.

The victim who was left in the cab succumbed to multiple head injuries, Mazlan said.

He said the driver then immediately lodged the police report.

The Malaysian Insider DAP assistant national publicity secretary Teo Nie Ching, in a statement today, said the home minister had provided two different crime rates for 2013 when asked by Kluang MP Liew Chin Tong and Pengkalan Chepa MP Izani Husin. Putrajaya is providing inaccurate information on crime in Parliament, a DAP lawmaker said today, citing discrepancies in crime statistics last year as the latest example. “How can we have two different crime statistics for 2013? And the difference between the two is huge,” said the Kulai MP. A side-by-side comparison of the statistics revealed differences in the figures provided in the written reply to both MPs. The total indexed crime in 2013, as given to Liew, was 147,062 while in the ministry’s answer to Izani, it was 99,613. This was a difference of 47,449 cases. Statistics provided to Liew showed 29,375 cases of violent crimes in 2013 while Izani’s only had 20,246.

Burglars take advantage of CNY to escape with jewelery worth RM10 mil

PETALING JAYA (Feb 3, 2014): In one of the largest heists at a goldsmith shop nationwide in recent years, burglars took advantage of the Chinese New Year holidays to steal nearly RM10 million in jewellery from an outlet at the One Utama shopping mall in Bandar Utama here. The burglary at Wah Chan Jewellers is believed to have occurred sometime between Friday and yesterday as workers only realised the shop had been burgled when they came back from the holidays at 9.30am today. It is believed that police are working on the theory that the burglars had stayed behind after closing hours on Friday to stage the heist. Petaling Jaya police chief ACP Arjunaidi Mohamed said they had gained entry into the shop from a rear door before using an oxyacetalene torch to break into a vault where the jewellery was stored. He said police have retrieved a closed-circuit security camera recording and will record statements from the mall’s security guards. http://www.thesundaily.my/news/946898 … Star photo

KUALA LUMPUR: A total of 26 individuals are to be granted protection under the Witness Protection Programme since 2009, said the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Operations Evaluation Panel (PPO) chairman, Tan Sri Dr Hadenan Abdul Jalil. However, he said applications for another 23 individuals to be included in the programme established under the Witness Protection Act 2009, were rejected. “This programme aims to ensure that those who are given protection are able to perform their task as witnesses effectively. This is important because there are cases where witnesses change their testimony when in court,” he said at a press conference on Thursday. According to the interpretation that was distributed to the media, a witness is a person who has agreed to give evidence on behalf of the government in a criminal proceeding. Hadenan explained that under the programme witnesses are protected in terms of their security or from criminal acts by others and that there were several criteria to be considered before an application was approved for the person to be included in the programme. 26 granted protection under Witness Protection Programme —

Elite force to take on serious crime

HIGHLY TRAINED: It will comprise 400 tactical specialists

KUALA LUMPUR: POLICE are ready to roll out a 400-strong elite strike force to combat serious crime in the country. The first 200, under Bukit Aman’s D9-Special Investigations Division, will be declared operational by this week, while the second batch, under the Narcotics Division will attain initial operational capability “soon”. From an initial core group of 20 tactical officers, the team has been expanded to 200, with the final target of 400 officers. They will be deployed throughout the country to act as assaulters in raids and tactical operations, primarily by the serious crimes and the anti-narcotics divisions. Members of this elite team were culled from the many contingents nationwide and already have extensive tactical experience. They were selected and put through a rigorous training exercise of more than a month to hone their skills in all aspects of tactical tradecraft. These include abseiling and fast-roping, breaching and clearing, the use of breaching charges, close-quarters battle (CQB) tactical shooting and an advanced course in sniper techniques and hostage rescue in different scenarios, from static (such as buildings, rooms or houses) to dynamic (Light Rail Transit, buses and aircraft). Part of their training was concentrated within the parameters of the Police Training Centre, more commonly known as Pulapol. A “city” was constructed here to allow these men and women to train in real-world situations. The town comes complete with its own traffic management system and an LRT station with working escalators (See accompaning graphics).

Car chase drama

It ends with four robbery suspects fleeing on foot

High-speed pursuit in Petaling Jaya ends with four robbers fleeing on foot. PETALING JAYA: A high-speed car chase through the densely-populated Kota Damansara ended with the police shooting at robbers who nearly hit a pedestrian in their stolen vehicle. Forensic duty: Police officers inspecting the Proton Waja after the crash at the residential area in Petaling Jaya. A patrol car arrived at an apartment area here at about 3.45pm yesterday to inspect a Proton Wira that was parked there. The car is believed to have been stolen from Kelana Jaya earlier this year, based on interrogations of gang members involved in car robberies in the area. “Upon arrival, the officers encountered four men who are believed to be part of the gang. “They then jumped into a Proton Waja and sped off while smashing into several other vehicles parked in the area,” said Petaling Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Arjunaidi Mohamed. An hour-long chase ensued in the pouring rain before the gang drove into a residential area in Jalan Cecawi 6/19. “They almost hit a man in his 50s who was standing near the road, and while they were trying to reverse out, they nearly hit him again. “In order to prevent them from hitting him, the officers fired twice at the car,” said ACP Arjunaidi. The suspects lost control of the car which smashed into a parked Proton Wira. Car chase drama — The report quoted criminologist Teh Yik Koon of the Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) as saying that crime rates were widely accepted to be higher than reported due to lack of confidence in the police force. Malaysiakini

Amid concerns over rising crime in the country, Malaysia has stopped providing statistics to the United Nations, according to yesterday’s New York Times. This, according to the report, was confirmed by Enrico Bisogno, who is in charge of gathering crime statistics at the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. Even locally, the report notes, there are concerns over such statistics being manipulated. “Critics note that after years of providing the public with data on murders, rapes, thefts and other crimes, the government has changed the way it presents crime statistics, focusing on what it calls ‘index crimes’ rather than giving a detailed accounting,” it said. However, the New York Times said it managed to obtain detailed crime statistics from the police. SUMMARY OF STATISTICS 1 In the last 12 years have remained relatively unchanged at around 600 a year. 2 A reduction in robberies using firearms to 17 cases in 2012 from 722 cases nationwide in 2000. 3 Gang robbery fell to 110 cases in 2012, from a high of 1,809 in 2010. 4 Rape cases have seen a steep rise with the number reported doubling to 2,964 cases in 2012 from 2000.

Tourist stabbed and mugged in KL

Seasoned traveler Dave Ramsay from the UK vents his frustration on the net about the indifferent attitude of local police when reporting his horrifying ordeal

KUALA LUMPUR: As the crime rate in Malaysia rises, the public is feeling less secure walking down the streets these days. Even tourists have not been spared as more fall victims to muggings and snatch thefts. One such incident left a backpacker, Dave Ramsay from Ayr, United Kingdom angry and annoyed as he was stabbed and mugged in the KL city center near Hard Rock Cafe on Oct 5. … “The mode of this mugging was to pull on a bag and when I turned round I was stabbed in the chest with a knife, while turning. This is a ‘stab-first-rob-later’ mode of attack,” related Dave. Thinking that he has merely been punched, he went on to assist his female companion friend who was holding on to her bag, only to be slashed across his right arm. That was when he realised that his chest was bleeding. He said: “At first I thought I had been punched, my friend held on to her bag and I started to assist only to be slashed with a knife across my right arm – that was when I saw blood oozing out my chest.” He immediately told her to let the bag go as the knife was being held too near her neck. The robber managed to flee with the bag. … In venting out his frustration, Dave said that there were no police in sight and even security personnel at the local venues were not helpful. When lodging a report, he further lamented on the careless attitude of the tourist police. “The tourist police did not ask anything about the perpetrator of this crime – all they did was produce a report for an insurance claim. They have no intention of pursuing criminals, no interest,” he said. In frustration Dave described the police as being worse than criminals in this country and alleged they are being sheltered by politicians. “I genuinely feel the police in KL are worse than the criminals because they are ineffective, not present and most likely getting a cut. The politicians are the police masters and I wonder how they make so much money.” http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2013/10/14/tourist-stabbed-and-mugged-in-kl/ — NST 09 October 2013| last updated at 07:03PM

10 men who have been terrorising women at homes nabbed

By AUSTIN CAMOENS

SHAH ALAM: For over a year, 10 masked men have been terrorising women at their homes, committing at least 302 armed robberies – almost one everyday. Threatening their victims with parang, they would stake out the women as they went about their activities before striking in the early hours of the morning. Their reign of terror came to an end on Tuesday when a police task force moved in on them at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur and arrested seven men, including a 19-year-old private college student. … Based on investigations, DCP Mohd Shukri said the gang members, working in threes, would park their cars in neighbourhoods and stake out the houses, looking for an opportunity to strike. “They would target houses where the women were either home alone or have just come home,” he said, adding that the mastermind – a 31-year-old suspect – was also arrested. SDCP Mohd Shukri said the man had recruited his 29-year-old brother, a mobile phone shop staff, into the gang.

Lust blamed for police misconduct

The lust for lavish lifestyle leads policemen in losing sight of their main objectives of donning the blue uniform.

SHAH ALAM: The pursuit for pleasure amongst police officers has somehow caused a number of misconducts being highlighted in the media. With police misdeeds being exposed in the past years, there have been calls by certain quarters for the setting up of the Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission (IPCMC); to monitor the men in blue. During an interview with FMT the newly appointed Selangor police chief, Mohd Shukri Dahlan admitted that he is aware of the ‘old disease’ in the police force where one yearns to live out a hedonistic lifestyle. Citing the example of the two policemen allegedly involved in a snatch theft incident in Petaling Jaya last month, Shukri said that age is one of the reasons of misbehavior in the force, as well as other social factors around rookie officers who have yet to sense the real meaning of donning the uniform. “I know there are police officers who were involved in this (misconduct). Most of them wanted to live in a lavish lifestyle,” “Young officers who just joined the force and have yet to fully understand the meaning of becoming a police officer, as well as the social atmosphere surrounding them. They don’t want to be left out in a sense,” http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2013/09/25/lust-blamed-for-police-misconduct/ ———————————————————————–
