Daylight robbery in Khairy's home
KUALA LUMPUR: Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin has become the latest victim of robbers when his home was hit on Saturday afternoon.

Three men scaled the wall of the bungalow in Jalan Setiabistari, Bukit Damansara, at about 5.30pm before breaking in through the front door.

Khairy and his wife, who live in the house which belongs to his mother, were not in when the robbers struck.

The only person in the house was a maid, who said the three men ransacked the place, including the master bedroom where most of the valuables were kept.

The robbers took off with several laptop compu*ters, watches and other expensive items.

City CID chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk Ku Chin Wah said police were trying to find out the total number of items taken away.
“There have been no arrests yet. We are probing all angles for the robbery,” he said.

Khairy, who also confirmed the robbery on his Facebook page yesterday, thanked family members and friends who offered words of kindness.

“Thankfully no one was hurt and I leave the matter in the hands of the police.

“This incident is a reminder to us all that crime is a serious problem in our country.

“It is a real issue and not just merely a perception,” he said, urging other victims of crimes to stay strong.

He also urged everyone to keep their families and themselves safe.

Re: Crime number one worry among Malaysians

Hardcore criminals running loose


Keeping patrons safe An armed security guard patrolling the South Sea seafood restaurant in Kampung Baru Subang.
PETALING JAYA: The repeal of the Emergency Ordinance saw some 2,000 detainees being freed. If even a third of them returned to crime, that means there are about 800 hardcore criminals running loose in the country.

Police, however, believe the number could be far bigger.

Most of the youths released from detention under the EO usually return to their old ways, a police officer said.

The assistant superintendent from Perak, who requested anonymity, said that when the EO was in effect, these individuals were kept off the streets.

“As soon as they were off the leash, it was back to breaking the law,” he said in an interview.

This was inevitable as crime is the only livelihood former detainees were accustomed to, he said.

“All they need to do is make a telephone call and they will be ‘hooked up’. Some need not even make that call; they almost immediately get ‘recruited’.”

Add to this situation the seemingly easy availability of firearms all the way from Bukit Kayu Hitam to Johor, and we have a scary scenario on our hands.

With violent snatch thefts, assaults and robberies of restaurant and their patrons, even food outlets are resorting to hiring armed guards to protect them.

Others are keeping their doors locked, only allowing regular patrons into their premises.

The ASP also said many former detainees were capable of anything, even robbing wedding guests at religious premises.

“There have been many such cases when temple weddings were held during the wee hours, an auspicious time for Hindus,” he said.

“Robbers see this as an ‘auspicious’ time, too. It is ideal for them – it’s 5am, it’s dark and there’s no real security.

“Also, they know that women wear jewellery during these functions,” the ASP said.

On why the former detainees escaped prosecution, the source said it was difficult to find incriminating evidence against them.

“Most of them are gang members. To society, they are ruthless and intimidating. Witnesses are not forthcoming; it is hard to gather concrete proof to put the suspects behind bars.”

“Many of them are also either on drugs or are pushers themselves,” another senior police officer said.

He said that while addicts on traditional drugs like ganja and heroin could be sent for rehabilitation programmes, those on amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) like syabu have greater feeling of confidence and were harder to control.

There was also no tailored rehabilitation programmes for this group, who only use the drugs when they set out to commit crimes.

ATS, he said, was the kind of drugs used by kamikaze pilots in World War Two before their suicide dives. ATS users are also likely to end up with mental health problems.

Eateries bite the bullet and get armed guards


PETALING JAYA: After a spate of robberies at eateries, even restaurants have resorted to hiring armed guards.

South Sea Seafood Restaurant in Kampung Baru Subang is one such restaurant, which has invested in extra security to provide customers peace of mind as they eat in the premises.

“It is an unusual and costly move for a restaurant but we feel that prevention is better than cure.

“We had heard about restaurants being targeted by robbers so we decided to engage an armed guard a month ago,” said restaurant owner Terence Wong yesterday.

Wong, 42, said his customers admitted feeling more secure and confident when dining at the restaurant with an armed guard around.

The failure to hire of such armed guards, however, proved costly for the owners of the Lala Chong Seafood Restaurant which has two outlets.

Robbers armed with parang hit its Ara Damansara outlet in April.

Manager Wong Thian Foh, 35, said the company had security personnel for its Kayu Ara restaurant since 2008 but felt the one in Ara Damansara was secure enough because it was located in a posh neighbourhood.

“But the Ara Damansara restaurant ended up being an easy target for robbers,” he said.

Since the incident, more security guards have been hired for both restaurants.

“We are also looking at arming all our security guards in spite of the added costs,” he said.

In early June, several restaurants in Pudu and Cheras suffered a similar fate.

In one case, eight parang-wielding men robbed customers and the restaurant owner of RM24,000 and mobile phones at 4am.

Re: Crime number one worry among Malaysians

Shukri: Govt may come up with Bill to replace Emergency Ordinance

PETALING JAYA: There are growing calls for stronger preventive action against criminals in the wake of disturbing crime incidents.

This follows concerns from the police and public over the rise in violent crime – which has been attributed partly to criminals being back on the street after the Emergency Ordinance was abolished in 2011 following criticisms that it was draconian and undemocratic.

Since then, nearly 2,000 criminals have been released.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Nancy Shukri said a new preventive law might be considered if it could help lower the crime rate.

“We are studying how we can overcome this problem. If we need to have a new law, so be it,” said Nancy when asked in the Parliament lobby.

Former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said: “We need to have laws where we can take action and get the criminals or gangsters out of the community.

“The victims need protection and preventive laws can provide that,” he said.

He added that in the past, the police would use preventive laws to obtain evidence from the victims, especially in cases involving gangsterism and syndicates.

“Sometimes victims of crimes are afraid to give their cooperation as the cases involved gangsters.

“Preventive laws enabled the victims to give evidence without going to court ... such action will then lead to preventive detention,” he said when contacted.

Musa said the concept of natural justice existed under the preventive laws, as there was an advisory board to review the cases to avoid biasness.

Several groups are also supportive of the call to have a new law to check violent crimes, provided safeguards are put in place to make sure there is no room for abuse.

Malaysian Crime Prevention Foundation vice-chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye agreed that while there was a need for a new legislation for the authorities to deal with violent crimes, there should also be checks and balances to prevent abuses.

“Preventive laws are not meant to be short cuts into investigation of cases,” he said.

MCA vice-president Gan Ping Sieu, a lawyer by training, said getting the police to provide evidence to justify arrests and having avenues for detainees to appeal against their arrests, are among the mechanisms that should be put in place if the Government was seriously looking into coming up with a new preventive law.

“We are dealing with a different breed of criminals now.

“I feel there is a necessity for it (preventive law) as long as safeguards are in place against abuses,” he said.

Lawyer and MCA legal bureau chief Tay Puay Chuan cautioned that any new legislation must straddle between tackling crime and addressing human rights.

Re: Crime number one worry among Malaysians

1km trail of blood. Both father and son passed away in a day, RIP. :(

http://www.todayonline.com/singapore/murdered-man-planned-go-fishing-monday


BY
AMANDA LEE
ASHLEY CHIA
-2 HOURS 10 MIN AGO
SINGAPORE — Nothing seemed to be amiss when Mr Tan Boon Sin left his motor workshop at Kaki Bukit around 1pm on Wednesday afternoon, his employees recalled. The 67-year-old came to work at the usual time that day, and appeared to be his normal and cheerful self.

The fishing enthusiast had just returned from a fishing trip in Kuching last week and had planned to return on Monday, according to a friend who shared a room with him on the most recent trip.

On Wednesday afternoon, Mr Tan was found murdered in his home at Hillside Drive. The body of his eldest son, 42-year-old Tan Chee Heong, was found outside Kovan MRT Station along Upper Serangoon Road, after it had been dragged under a car — a silver Camry belonging to the elder Tan.

The police yesterday classified the two deaths as murders after locating the silver Camry parked neatly at a carpark at Block 1084, Eunos Avenue 7A — a few streets away from where the elder Tan’s workshop used to be before it moved to Kaki Bukit some three years ago. Investigations are ongoing.

Blood stains were spotted on the doors of the car, according to those who reported the discovery to the police at 8.50am yesterday. When they left their workplace at around 11pm on Wednesday, they did not see the car there.

Shocked by the double murder, family members, friends and neighbours who knew the Tans struggled to come to terms with what had happened. Most, if not all, were left wondering why this would happen to the father and son, with many describing the elder Tan as “a very nice man”. Little was known about the son.

The elder Tan, who had been in the car workshop business for over 40 years, was described by those in the industry as an amicable and easy-going man. “He was a happy-go-lucky man, he never quarrelled with anyone,” said his worker, who wanted to be known as Ah Xiong, before he turned teary.

Neighbours said the elder Tan lived “quietly” with his wife and the couple had a close-knit family who visited often, especially their eldest son. The couple would also look after the children of Mr Tan Chee Heong, who is said to run a software company.

A woman, who wished to be known as Mrs Pang and has been neighbours with the Tans for about 10 years, said the elder Tan would occasionally volunteer to send her daughters to school.

Another neighbour, who wished to be known as Mr Kirk and who was at home at the time of the murders, said he did not hear anything that afternoon as he was watching television. He added that he had never heard any commotion in the 10 years he had been neighbours with them.

One neighbour, however, said she saw Mr Tan Chee Heong, who was covered in blood, stumbling out of the terrace house before falling face down to the ground. She then saw a “fat, short” man dressed in an orange-and-white striped polo tee and bluish-grey jeans drive the Camry out. There were no blood stains on the man, who looked to be in his 50s or 60s, she said.

Despite the pouring rain yesterday, the 1km trail of blood linking the two locations where the bodies were found was still visible along some stretches. A red Toyota Starlet GT Turbo, said to belong to Mr Tan Chee Heong, remained parked against the flow of traffic outside the terrace house.

Family members returned to the Hillside home in the afternoon for about an hour before leaving, holding a few bags and declining to speak to the media.

Mr Alan Tan, 36, a friend of the elder Tan, visited the house yesterday afternoon hoping to find out the details of the funeral. He told reporters that he and Mr Tan often went fishing in a group of about 10 people who were in their 30s and 40s.

“He was a very kind and very humble man and he never behaved like he was older than us,” he said, adding that the elder Tan often advised them to stop smoking and told them he would offer S$100 to his employees who promised to quit smoking.

They were also expecting to go on another fishing trip, which has since been cancelled.

1.The murderer must have been known to the family.
2. Something is not right with the son.

Re: Crime number one worry among Malaysians

Sharing some tips from a crime expert, as reported in an article in the Star:

In the past, people took their troubles to the police and made an official report, which would begin the launch of a proper investigation.

“Now, less people are making official reports as they think nothing will come of it. Some find it easier to settle their troubles themselves. But you should lodge a report and let the police do their jobs,” said Bala.

To avoid being “hidden statistics”, the safety trainer encouraged Malaysians to report crimes so it will reflect on the crime index.

Proper statistics also help police procure a bigger budget from the government for crime prevention and hot spot treatment.

“If six people undergo - and report - snatch theft in front of a certain mall, the hot spot treatment would be to light up the area, install warning signs, or even a request for the mall to beef up security,” he said.

With almost two decades of experience in conducting safety courses, Bala’s top personal safety tip is to know the number of your district police headquarters (IPD).

“Instead of calling the 999 hotline, contact the police directly as the IPD can summon patrol cars to the site of the report,” he said.​

IPD = Ibupejabat Polis Daerah

Big news in Gelang Patah.

One 30+ year old Japanese who speak no English was inside his car driving in a congested road in Gelang Patah when a Proton Gen2 stopped at traffic light and SMASHED his window. One robber used a parang to slash his ear which was bleeding profusingly. Got away with some items.

The poor Japanese lost some valuables. I heard from my fellow neighbours last night and the news was also reported in the papers.

JB South police reactivates Ninja Squad


FIGHTING URBAN CRIME: Law enforcers on high-powered motorcycles and mountain bikes help reduce street crimes, says police chief

JOHOR BARU: THE Johor Baru South Police have reactivated their Ninja Squad to further reduce street crimes in the district.

Its chief Assistant Commissioner Zainuddin Yaccob said the squad has been less active over the last four months as the police have been more focused on the motorcycle patrol units (URB).

Ninja Squad members are dressed in fluorescent green vests and wear protective gear, and can be spotted patrolling the city streets on green Kawasaki KLX 250cc dirt bikes and mountain bikes to fight urban crime.

"The Ninja Squad members not only help to reduce street crimes like snatch thefts but also monitor motorcyclists who break the law or ride dangerously," said Zainuddin.

He said the police have identified the areas where the squad will the deployed, namely Taman Pelangi, Johor Baru Central area, Permas, and Larkin.

"The squad has helped the police reduce street crimes in the district by 45 per cent last year," said Zainuddin. "This is because we are always on the ground."

The squad, which was launched in 2008, comprises 10 police personnel who each have extensive experience in handling high-powered motorcycles.

Besides the Ninja Squad, Johor Baru South police also have 34 members in its motorcycle patrol unit.

Meanwhile, Zainuddin said the police have confiscated contraband cigarettes and an assortment of fireworks in two separate raids in Kampung Melayu Majidee on July 18 and 19.

"Four suspects aged between 22 and 53 were arrested in the raids. We also seized contraband cigarettes worth RM7,000 and fireworks worth RM8,000," Zainuddin said.

He added that the two cases were being investigated under Section 135 of the Customs Act and Section 8 of the Explosives Act.

"I want to remind the public not to play with fireworks during this festive season. We will act against those who sell or play with them," said Zainuddin.
