Cops nab two suspects who robbed restaurant worker of RM76,000

KUALA LUMPUR – Police detained two suspects, a local man and an Indonesian woman, believed to have been involved in robbing an Indonesian restaurant worker of RM65,000 cash and jewellery worth RM11,000 at a shophouse in Taman Saujana, Puchong, near here on Thursday.

Subang Jaya police chief Wan Azlan Wan Mamat said during the 4pm incident, three robbers had broken into the shophouse and assaulted the 43-year-old victim.

Wan Azlan said the three robbers then escaped with the cash and jewellery, which had been kept in a cupboard.

He added that following the victim’s police report at 7.39pm, police detained the two suspects in Subang Jaya yesterday.

“During investigation and interrogation, both suspects admitted to being involved in the robbery,” he said in a statement today.

Wan Azlan said police recovered RM17,000 and various jewellery, believed to have been the spoils from the duo’s activities.

He said police were still on the trail of two more suspects involved in the robbery.

Those with information about the incident can contact the district police control centre at 03-7862-7100 or call the investigating officer Anthony John Sandanadas at 012-504-3470. – Bernama, October 1, 2022
