Another Case - Flying Projectile at Connaught Highway

14/8/13

posted by Anson Ong

Every time see this kind of news in FB, but didn't expect it will happen to my own family,

14th August 2013, around 3.45pm, my mom, the one who driving along the CONNAUGHT highway alone,as claimed by her just pass by the pass way bridge, not far from MCD or GIANT / outside Connaught pasar malam, suddenly a big stone hits her wind screen and blew off a big hole in front, luckily my mom wearing sunglasses while the stone chips hit her face and it messed all over the car. I couldnt imagine what happen if the stone hots her eyes, And luckily her response are not in lost control when the things happened. When she called me through the phone, i can heard her voice of frighten and scare but no choice have to drive slowly back home to make a further decision. She is not hurt in physically, but mentally annoyed. We do think of making a police report, but due to our previous 2 times of bad experience of the police officer attitude when taking our report (they treated us like we are the criminal), so we decided not to launch the report as you and I would know its a pretty useless action. This share is just to let more people know there are some physco out there in Connaught. I assumed it is lucky to have windscreen slightly tinted whereby our country officer actually takes that as a offenses or a "chances", to me, if we do not protect ourself, who will? Please be careful. — at Taman Connaught.

Online Love Scam Ring Busted

KUALA LUMPUR: A syndicate that specialises in online love scams couldn’t charm its way out when police raided an apartment in Bukit Mandarin, Cheras.

Police confiscated 10 bank cards, six passbooks believed to be from previous scams, and 1kg of methamphetamine stashed in one of the suspects’ car.

Four notebook computers and six mobile phones were also recovered during the operation at 10.30am on Thursday.

Three Nigerian men, another from Lesotho and Malaysian women aged 29 to 32 were arrested.

Their modus operandi involves gaining the trust of females online, and then asking them to bank in money to a Malaysian woman’s account in order to pay for the “tax” on a parcel that they claim has been detained by the Malaysian Customs.

The conmen would say the parcel contains lots of cash, and would then promise the girls a share of the cash as a reward.

Investigations into the syndicate began in April after a 21-year-old college student was duped of RM1,630.

She had reportedly befriended a British man named Richard Kickme on Facebook in January and fallen in love with the online Casanova.

“On April 19, one of the suspects contacted the victim, saying he was planning to visit her.

“He called her again the next day, claiming he had arrived but was held up at the airport for bringing in a parcel containing US$48,000 (RM135,000).

“He said he would give her some of the money if she banked in the amount, which she did the same day,” said Cheras OCPD ACP Mohan Singh, adding that she lodged a police report after the man did not show up.

ACP Mohan said commercial crime officers were studying the bank cards and passbooks to help solve other similar cases.

Beware of them

Teen girl a scout for clinic robbers

By NICHOLAS CHENG and SIMON KHOO

KUALA LUMPUR: A teenage girl was part of a gang of robbers which preyed on polyclinics when it wasn’t hitting restaurants, spas, furniture shops and sundry stores.

She would be inside the clinic, pretending to be in line to see the doctor. But she would actually be taking note of wealthy patients while making sure the place wasn’t too crowded.

When she was satisfied with conditions, she would signal the rest of the gang and the men would storm in, brandishing parang and demanding cash and valuables.

Police said the gang was responsible for at least 14 robberies in Kajang, Cheras and Seremban in the last three months.

The gang’s successful streak ended when one of them was shot dead by a Tan Sri during a botched robbery at a polyclinic in Taman Pertama, Cheras, at about 10pm last Friday.

The rest of the gang members had managed to flee after their accomplice collapsed but police tracked them down to their flat in Bandar Mahkota Cheras at about 1.30am yesterday.

Three male suspects, aged 22, 23 and 30, and a girl, 17, were arrested.

Police found two parang, a knife, masks, break-in tools, mobile phones, a laptop and a tablet computer inside the flat.

The raiding party also recovered more than RM5,000 in cash and valuables, as well as three cars – a Proton Iswara, Perodua MyVi and Honda City.

Selangor acting police chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk A. Thaiveegan said the four had no criminal record.

“We believe they were involved in the Cheras polyclinic case. Initial investigations suggest they belong to the same group linked to the robber who was shot dead,” he said.

He said the four would be remanded until Monday and were being investigated under Section 395 and 397 of the Penal Code for robbery.

Police believe another seven gang members are still at large.

Pahang Chinese Chamber of Commerce chairman Tan Sri Lam Kam Sang, 68, had shot dead the 21-year-old when the robber attacked him with a parang.

Lam, who heard about the arrests, congratulated the police yesterday.

“I will give my full cooperation if my assistance is needed to identify the suspects.”

Tan Sri shoots parang-wielding robber dead at clinic in Cheras

Tan Sri shoots parang-wielding robber dead at clinic in Cheras

KUALA LUMPUR: A Tan Sri undergoing a medical check up at a clinic in Cheras shot dead a parang-wielding man who had tried to slash him during a botched robbery attempt late Thursday. During the 10pm incident, three men barged into the clinic and demanded that everyone in the clinic hand over their valuables and cash.

 
 When one of the robbers pointed a parang at the Tan Sri, who is in his 50s and from Pahang, he produced a gun and told the suspects to leave or he would shoot.

Instead, the robbers, ticked off at the sight of the firearm, lunged and attacked the Tan Sri, who then fired multiple shots, killing one of them. Cheras OCPD Assistant Commissoner of Police (ACP) Mohan Singh said the men then fled the clinic located at Jalan 2/90 in Taman Pertama.

"We found one of them dead some 30m away, with gunshots in his knee, stomach and buttocks."

The body of the dead suspect, believed to be in his late 20s, was sent to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital for a post mortem.

"We do not know if any of the others who fled were injured," ACP Mohan said.

He said the three suspects had entered the clinic and threatened the patients and staff, while an accomplice waited outside.

"The Tan Sri sustained slight abrasions on his stomach, as one of the robbers had tried to slash him with a parang," he said.

Police recovered a knife at the scene and a Nissan car parked outside the clinic, which was stolen in another clinic robbery that occurred in Taman Mahkota Batu 9, Kajang on Wednesday.

ACP Mohan said this indicated that the robbers were also connected with the earlier case.

He said the Tan Sri's gun was retained by the police for investigations, adding that he had a licence to carry the firearm.
The case is being investigated under Section 395 and 397 of the Penal Code for gang robbery.

Meanwhile, clinic nurse Litya Gunasegaran, 24 said there were seven patients and four staff members, including a doctor, at the time of the incident.

"They burst in and everyone got a shock. One of them was carrying a parang and held it to people's necks.

"He said 'kasi wang!' (give money)," said Litya, adding that the men were dressed in shirts and shorts, and weren't wearing masks.

She said they went to each person and demanded their handphones, wallets, watches and jewellery.

"They took my necklace and went to another person, that's when I heard the shots," she said, adding that the Tan Sri was a regular patient at the clinic.

Three guards hacked up like ‘meat’ in brutal Cheras attack

May 19, 2013

KUALA LUMPUR, May 19 ― Two men launched a savage attack upon three security workers at an apartment complex here yesterday, hacking away at their victims with parangs as though they “were meat”, The Star reported on its website today.

The gruesome attack was captured on a closed-circuit television recording, but is unclear if the video was able to identify the assailants as they both wore crash helmets during the event.

According to the newspaper, the attackers were believed to be thieves targeting the residents of the apartment. This was also not the first time the guards were attacked.

“The previous attack was not so serious. They only punched a guard and broke the window,” resident association chairman Bruce Tan was quoted as saying in the report.

“The attack this time was so horrifying. I watched the CCTV recording and saw the guards being chopped like they were meat.”

The attack was confirmed by KL CID chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk Ku Chin Wah, who added the victims were in stable condition.

The incident is the latest in a growing trend of violent crimes reported in the country. Last month, 52-year-old Irene Ong was killed after she was stabbed repeatedly during a botched robbery attempt in broad daylight at the idyllic Bukit Gasing hiking trail in Petaling Jaya.

The same month also saw Royal Malaysian Customs deputy director-general II Datuk Shaharuddin Ibrahim, 58, shot dead near a traffic light near the Putrajaya police station.

Putrajaya has sought to address concerns over the crime rate and introduced crime-reduction as a National Key Result Area (NKRA), which the police and the government’s efficiency unit Pemandu said has been successful in reducing crime.

But the ubiquity of crime reports, both in the news and shared in social media, have led to doubts over the veracity of the authorities’ professed drop in crime.

Crime watchdog groug MyWatch also accused the police in February of massaging the crime statistics, claiming cases of snatch theft and robbery without firearms as well as burglaries and house break-ins, were higher than the published crime index from January to October 2011.

The police have denied manipulating national crime figures.

3rd November 2012, Taman Cheras, attempt theft to my neighbour which eye witness by myself! It was heavy rain and my neighbour was out. A motorcyclist stopped his motorcycle near to my place and try to jump over the gate to get inside. Thanks to my two dear dogs who was barking non-stops and my alertness, when he saw me and started to shout, he quickly ran to his motorcycle and escaped. The best part is this malay fella might in the mid of 15 to 17 years old and can act cool when he saw me! I couldnt track his motorcycle number as it was heavy rain and my door was locked.
