TAIPING, Feb 8 – A man fired shots in the direction of four robbers who had broken into his house to save his daughter who was almost abducted by the criminals at their double-storey bungalow in Taman Pengawai Kerajaan, Assam Kumbang here at 3am today.
Taiping police chief ACP Yusof Mohd Diah said one of the robbers, believed to be an Indonesian in his 40s, was later found dead in some bushes about 100 metres from the house.
He said the father, Abdul Jalil Abdul Wahab, 63, was a former deputy police chief of Kota Setar in Kedah.
“Prior to the shooting, three of the four robbers, all wearing masks, had broken into the house through the upper floor occupied by his daughter, son-in-law and two grandchildren.
“When his daughter, who the robbers held as a hostage, started calling for help, her father grabbed his pistol and, after viewing the security CCTV installed in his home, went after the robbers,” he told reporters here.
