Man who slashed wife to death remanded seven days
TANGKAK: The man who slashed his wife to death in Bukit Gambir last Monday has been remanded for seven days from today to facilitate further investigations. The remand order was issued by Magistrate Lee Kim Kiat for the investigations to be carried out under Section 320 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing grievous hurt and Section 435 of the same Code for mischief by fire. According to Tangkak Police District chief Supt Roslan Mohd Talib, the man was initially apprehended for allegedly torching a car and a motorcycle at his mother-in-law's house. He said that during interrogation, the suspect appeared confused and told them that his wife was missing. 'A team of policemen went to his house to investigate. That was when they found his wife, lifeless on the floor of the living room, covered with a blanket and a knife not far from the body,' he told Bernama when contacted. Roslan said the police believed that family conflict was the motive behind the two incidents. Initial investigation also revealed that the 33-year-old suspect had a previous record related to a crime of mischief, he added. Meanwhile, the suspect's mother-in-law, when met at her house in Durian Chondong, Muar, said the last time she saw her daughter was just from afar, three days ago, when she went to pick up a bag of rice that the couple bought for her from Thailand. 'He (the suspect) has not spoken to me for quite some time and does not allow my daughter to see her parents, her siblings or any of our relatives. He always tells us to stay away,' the 63-year-old mother said. The woman said she always had the feeling that something bad was going to happen to her daughter, and true enough, the suspect came to her house late on the night of the incident, trying to set fire to her house. 'Late that night, he came to our place, torched our car and motorcycle. If we were awakened just a minute late, my family, my grandchildren and I would have perished in that fire,' she said, adding that her daughter, 34, married the man three years ago. Although it is hard to cope with the loss of her daughter, the woman said she still wants justice to be served.

Pensioner loses over RM100,000 to scam syndicate
TANGKAK: A 58-year-old female pensioner lost RM108,520 to a scam syndicate. Tangkak police chief Supt Roslan Mohd Talib said the woman claimed it all started on May 9 when she was contacted by two men, one of them claiming to be an officer from the Communications and Multimedia Commission and the other, who claimed to be a police officer. He said the woman was told that she was wanted in a fraud case involving investments and non-existent loans, and to transfer the money in her account to a given bank account to facilitate investigations of the case. 'The woman did as was told and transferred her money, in 16 transactions, to two given bank accounts, suspected to be ' mule accounts,'' he said in a statement today. Roslan said the woman lodged a police report yesterday, and the case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code. He also advised the public who are victims of fraud to immediately contact the National Scam Response Centre (NSRC) at 997 as an initial action to block the outflow of money from the suspect's account.
