KUALA TERENGGANU: It was certainly not the kind of treatment a mother would expect on her special day.
Mothers Day turned out to be disappointing for a 60-year-old woman here when her drug addict son threatened her with a knife -- all for RM2.
In the 10am incident at their home in Kampung Gong Kijang, the woman was approached by her 33-year-old son, who asked for RM2, presumably to pay for his fix.
When she refused, he grabbed a kitchen knife and threatened her.
The suspect's sister, who witnessed the incident, immediately called their elder brother, who rushed home.
However, by the time he arrived, the suspect had fled.
Fearing for his mother's safety, the elder son, aged 34, lodged a police report at 9pm the same day.
State CID deputy chief Superintendent K. Manoharan said police seized a 20cm knife from the house.
