The Long Arm Of Justice

Following the arrest of the two suspects, police believed they had successfully solved at least six robbery cases with two cases occurring in the Cheras district and four more cases in the Dang Wangi district.

What Should You Not Do While Wearing Jewellery?

Following the incident, netizens said it is better not to wear jewellery outdoors as they attract robbers easily.

Yes, there’s no point in owning something if you don’t get enjoyment from it.

However, it is better not to wear jewellery in open outdoor areas where it will get all the eyebrows raised.

The chances that you will get mugged for your jewellery are much more than having it stolen from your home.

At the same time, netizens noted that most muggers are people who are desperate for drug money, which means the culprits would not hesitate to inflict bodily harm.

It is also not advisable to wear fake items, as most criminals can’t tell the difference between expensive jewellery or costume jewellery.

It is important to always remain vigilant and not fight back especially if the perpetrator comes with a weapon.
