[UPDATE ON THE SHOOTING INCIDENT AT A CLINIC IN KL] For the story on what had happened on 4th July 2013, please refer to our previous post: tinyurl/kr8hp78 News by The Malay Mail Online Reported by Charles Ramendran (Source: tinyurl/lurewxk) Four youths including a girl believed to be involved in the robbery of a medical clinic in Cheras last week were arrested by police today. Sources said that after days of tracking them down, a team from the Kajang district CID raided a house at Bandar Mahkota, Cheras where they arrested the suspects. The raiding party also recovered a heap of stolen loot comprising of handphones, wallets and jewellery at the house. A car that was used to carry out the robberies was also seized. It is learnt that investigators believe the suspects to be behind at least 10 cases of robberies that were pulled off mainly at clinics and restaurants in Kajang, Cheras and Seremban. Kajang police chief ACP Abdul Rashid Abdul Wahab who confirmed the case but declined to divulge details said a press conference will be held by Selangor acting police chief SAC Datuk A.Thaiveegan at the district police headquarters tomorrow regarding the case. The suspects are believed to be the accomplices of a 21-year-old robber who was shot dead by Pahang Chinese Chamber of Commerce chairman Tan Sri Lam Kam Sang when they tried to attack him with a parang in a clinic at Taman Pertama, Cheras at about 10pm on Friday. Lam, 68, who was accompanied by his wife, was seeking treatment at the clinic when a group of four robbers armed with machettes barged in. The businessman who is licensed to carry a firearm fired four gunshots at a robber when he attacked him despite being warned to leave the place at gunpoint. Upon seeing the robber collapse, his accomplices fled on foot abandoning their getaway car that was stolen from another clinic robbery in Bandar Mahkota a day earlier.
