Stinking day for clerk who loses RM46,000

KUALA LUMPUR: It was a “stinking” day for a despatch clerk.

The 50-year old man was just outside the Maybank branch in Bukit Bintang at 12.30pm with RM46,000 to deposit when he noticed a peculiar smell coming from his body.

He realised that his shirtsleeve was covered with faeces.

Along came a Good Samaritan, believed to be a Caucasian, who offered to help him to clean up.

After the Samaritan had gone, the clerk found that it wasn’t just the sleeve that the man cleaned.

His sling bag containing the money was also gone.

Police said they were looking at closed circuit videos to find out the identity of the Caucasian.
