Malay Mail Online
SEREMBAN, May 14 ― A year has passed since the vicious attack on two nuns at the Church of the Visitation in Jalan Yam Tuan took place, and the death of one of them has not brought about any change.
On May 14 last year, two nuns, Sister Juliana Lim, 68, and Sister Marie-Rose, 79, were brutally attacked by an unidentified helmet-wielding assailant, who is still at large. Sister Juliana succumbed to her injuries six days later.
The general consensus of business owners and people there when Malay Mail revisited the still crime-infested area was that security needs to be beefed up before they completely feel safe along the busy street.
Among the remarks made by folks in Jalan Yam Tuan, dubbed the “holy street” as it houses three major places of worship along a 2km stretch in the heart of the town, was: “I will never walk alone in these streets.”
It appeared as if last year’s outrage over the alleged lack of effort by police in arresting criminals who were terrorising people in Jalan Yam Tuan was still growing.

SEREMBAN, May 14 ― Calls are mounting for police to arrest the man who viciously attacked Sister Juliana Lim and Sister Marie Rose in front of Church of the Visitation last year.
The unsolved robbery cum murder is still fresh in the minds of Seremban folk who hope the killer will be caught even after being at large for almost a year.
The nuns were attacked by a snatch thief at the front gate of the church in Jalan Yam Tuan.
Sister Juliana succumbed to her injuries seven days later. Sister Marie Rose is now based in Malacca.
A jewellery shop owner, who only wanted to be known as Saroja, 45, expressed shock no one has yet to be charged with the murder.
“It has been almost a year. Are the police getting any closer to solving this case?” she asked.
Saroja urged the police to step up their efforts and make sure they get to the bottom of the case.

Parishioners and well-wishers attend the funeral of Sister Julianna in Seremban
SEREMBAN: The Catholic Church has expressed its gratitude to Malaysians from all religious background for their love and support following the senseless attack on two nuns here on May 14.
Apostolic Nuncio to Malaysia Archbishop Joseph Marino said the incident, which took place outside the Church of Visitation in Jalan Yam Tuan, had touched the hearts of many Malaysians.
The attack took the life of 69-year-old Sister Julianna Lim, who passed away days after she and Sister Marie Rose alias Theresa Teng were attacked by a man wearing a full-faced helmet at about 6am.
“Sentiments of condolences have come from the highest civil authorities of our beloved Malaysia for which there is a real sense of gratitude, for the most common person.
“I was even told the story of a man who after Friday prayers last week came to Father to express sympathy and to give a gift to assist the sisters with medical expenses,” he said at Lim’s funeral at the Church of Visitation here on Friday.

Tributes flow for nun who lived life helping hard-core poor children
Sister Juliana Lim, who died following an attack in an apparent robbery outside a church in Seremban last week, has been described as having devoted her life to teaching children from impoverished and broken families.
This was among the many tributes paid to the Catholic nun at the wake held at the Visitation Centre in Seremban today, which was attended by almost 100 mourners.
…
Undeterred by a light drizzle, children accompanied by adults made their way to the centre to offer their condolences to Lim’s family.
Church of Visitation assistant parish priest Father Gregory Chan led the tributes, describing Lim as someone who was strict but kind with the children.
“She never complained about giving her time to teach these children, even venturing into poverty-stricken areas when needed,” Chan said.
“Lim touched a lot of lives, including the underprivileged children whom she taught without asking for anything in return.”
Church of Visitation parish priest John Gnanapiragasam also paid tribute to Lim, whom he described as someone who gave freely of herself.
“She was truly someone who lived her life in service to the church,” John said.

Did the two nuns resist? Of course not! They are frail and old. They were beaten with crash helmets before the men took their possessions which were a Bible, prayer book, rosary and a small amount of cash each.

The Church of the Visitation released a statement today detailing the events that transpired based on CCTV footage of the incident, contradicting a statement from the police yesterday that two CCTVs were not working in front and at the back of the church.
“As at press time, we are not aware of any eye witnesses. Contrary to numerous reports and unwarranted speculation and biased interpretation by others, two of our 13 CCTVs have captured part of the incident as it occurred, aided by our brightly lit garden lights,” Gnanapiragasam added in the statement. – May 16, 2014.
BUT THE POLICE SAY ANOTHER: THE CCTV WHERE THE INCIDENT TOOK PLACE WAS FAULTY!
Police also revealed that the church has 13 closed-circuit television cameras installed within the church compound but the one installed near the main entrance where the incident took place was faulty.
“Out of the 13 CCTVs, two were faulty. One was the one at the main entrance where the incident happened while the other was at the back,” said Osman.

Sister Julianna may have irreversible brain injury

SEREMBAN: Sister Julianna Lim may have irreversible brain injury after being attacked with a helmet in the compound of a church here early on Wednesday.
The 69-year-old from the Holy Infant Jesus order based in Kampung Pasir has several blood clots in the head after being repeatedly struck with the helmet at the Church of Visitation here.
Members of the Roman Catholic order “specialise” in helping the poor and homeless and is famous worldwide for reaching out to the marginalised, making sure they get opportunities to make a better life for themselves.
Church member P. Mary Josephine, 65, said doctors had conveyed this to church officials as Lim’s condition had not improved since she was wheeled after the attack.
“Her pressure was extremely high when she was brought in but has since dropped. Doctors are trying their best to stabilise her but there are no signs of recovery yet,” she said.
Several church members have been praying by Lim’s bedside at the hospital since she was brought in for treatment.
Josephine said Lim suffered severe internal head injuries and bleeding.

Nuns attacked outside church
The Council of Churches of Malaysia (CCM) today expressed shock over the attack on the nuns.
“The voices of antagonism and hatred have been on the increase in the country and it would be no surprise if the attack on the nuns were not conspired by those out to cause inter-religious conflict in the country.
“The police must investigate this case of outright religious intimidation and fear creation and bring those responsible to justice,” said CCM general-secretary Reverend Hermen Shastri in a statement.
