Sorry guys i read this news online and try to update here but i need to go for dinner. Someone pls translate it...TQ
It's done Terry. Errr, for those who dont understand Malay, the article basically says : Rexy's wife's handbag was snatched by 2 men on motorcycle. Rexy & his wife, Henny were walking back to their car after eating at a restaurant, at abt 11 pm, Friday nite. Rexy gave chase(presumably in his car), knocked the bike, the pillian (?, long time didnt use, forgot how to spel this word, hehe) rider fell down the bike, the public detained the thief, the motorcyclist got away. Means they caught 1 guy. Rexy's wife sustained light injuries on her left arm due to being pulled along when they snatched her bag. From the description sounds like : they came, snatched, she wouldnt let go, the bike speed off, her arm injured due to impact. It didnt say whether she fell down or not, normally ppl will if the bike speed fast. ______________________________________________________________ Security nowadays getting worse, walk to car also bag get snatched. Rexy daring, can chase2 some more.
Thanks eaglehelang.... here is the english news from NST KUALA LUMPUR, Sat: National badminton head coach Rexy Mainaky's wife suffered injuries when dragged by two snatch thieves in Ampang, last night. Cheras police chief ACP Ahmad Amir Mohd Hashim said during the 11pm incident, Rexy and his wife Henny were walking to their car from a restaurant at Ampang City here when two assailants on a motorcycle tried to grab her hand beg. He told Bernama that Rexy's wife was injured when she tussled with her assailant who tried to snatch her hand beg, causing her to be dragged and suffered minor injuries to her left arm. Rexy, who displayed tremendous fighting spirit during his heydays as a doubles player, however, refused to be beaten by the assailants and jumped into his car and chased the suspects before knocking the motorcycle, causing the pillion rider to fall off. Ahmad Amir said passers-by who saw the incident quickly apprehended the fallen suspect while his accomplice who was riding the motorcycle, fled the scene. He added that the 33-year-old, suspect had six previous records for molest, drugs and Restricted Residence Act offences. "He will be remanded for four days to facilitate investigation," said Ahmad Amir, adding that police were looking for his accomplice, aged 40. Meanwhile, Henny received treatment at the Gleneagles Ampang. - Bernama
Malaysia is beginning to look more like a lawless country. We read about gun battles between gangsters and the police almost every week. The gangsters have the gall to switch their 'working hours' from late night hours to peak office hours now. They also have these mad hells angels who terrorize everyone on the road. Snatch thieves on motor cycles rob pedestrians with impunity. What is happening?
sad case indeed. Now the PM proposed a new bridge with singapore. It'll be a heaven for the snatch thieves. They should chop off the hands of those thieves like in saudis. I also got news saying that mat rempit slashing people in the dark near bukit jalil area. so jaga jaga kawan.
looks like someone is proposing hudud law.. but the police should focus more on crime instaed of wasting time raiding a certain political party HQ...
Sadly to say, but its true......The police need to do something here, the law need to be updated to sentence heavily to these snatch robbers....... And to all ladies,....they shd avoids using all those beautiful handbag.....and be aware while walking on road side........... But, Malaysia is still a safe and fun place to visit............
what has that got to do with it? LD when going to MAS will be living in hotel with shuttle bus taking him to the venue everyday. and honestly, compare to China, a little bit of petty crime in Malaysia is nothing. in China, human beings, children, disappears everyday. take the wrong bus and the bus might get robbed. there are countries with way way worse security. you are putting matter into the wrong context here.
Huh? That wasnt the reason they all complain Lin Dan not coming SEA countries to play, as you also know. The fans complain cos they cant get to see a top player play, some Msians(& other SEA countries) are LD fans you know. And bags dont get snatched in Malaysia only ______________________________________________________________ Hiyaa Jasonmarc, even when dont use handbag, walking in broad daylight also got ppl get robbed - if they're durg addicts, they dont care. Anyway, it's better to carry a backpack, around both shoulders so they wouldnt tempted to snatch. Some even carry it round the front. And put all purse/wallet, hp in pocket, not bag. When the thieves see bulging pants/skirt pocket they know we dont put in the bag/s.
There's an update & some corrections as Berita Harian interview Rexy : http://www.bharian.com.my/Current_News/BH/Sunday/BeritaUtama/20090523225624/Article/index_html It's different in the sense : it happened at 9.30 pm, after dinner & Rexy's 13 y.o. daughter also injured. Rexy said it happened this way, Rexy's wife & daughter crossed the road 1st to their car. Rexy saw his wife fell down, the bike stopped. At 1st, he thought the bike hit his wife. Then Rexy saw the motorcyclists trying to grab his wife's bag, pull2, wife & daughter fell down. Wife injured right arm, not left(for those who're picky, hehe), daughter injured her back. Rexy's friend chase with car(the one who had dinner with them at the restaurant), Rexy ran & chase, passers-by also chase2. Friend's car go & hit bike......they fell, one guy was caught. My earlier post i mentioned abt drug addicts cos tests confirmed the thief's bloodstream had syabu.
Yeah, and not to mentioned his 6 previous police records! I am glad he was instantly been captured. Puas hati! Malaysians, careful. Now, we might want to use the 1 Malaysia slogan. Care for others, too. We've seen the worst cases for these few days, so, be extra careful.
Rexy should buy one or two rottweiler lah. Then train it to guard his wife & daughter anywhere there go. Surely no one could get close to them.
Policeman is now more concentrate on the following matters:- - By-elections security matters - Setting up some very efficient road-block as to prevent drivers not over-speed We heard from the authority everytime when there is some serious snatching-cases happened - '' We will enforced more stern rules to those who are involved in the case.'' And the setence repeated 10x times without any action. We, as the ordinary people, being expose to the danger of such threat, cant do anything except, pray and beg to the god to look after us.........
in malaysia, from personal experience if you're chinese and happened to be in the wrong place and wrong time you're lucky to be just been beaten up, report to the local police and they will just have a good laugh. that wasn't happened that many years ago.
