A WOMAN in Seremban was robbed of her valuables by a man pretending to be a delivery man, Makkal Osai reported.
Leela Sababathi was alone at her home in Seremban Jaya when the supposed delivery man came to deliver a letter and asked her to produce her IC for verification.
When she returned with the IC and opened the gate, the man barged in and demanded she hand over her jewellery and any cash on her. The shocked woman handed over gold jewellery and about RM300 in cash. The man then escaped on his bike.
Leela has made a police report.
> Police in India have arrested the mother of a teenage drink driver, who killed two people when he crashed his Porsche into them, Malaysia Nanban reported.
In the incident, the 17-year-old was apparently driving while intoxicated in Pune, Maharashtra, killing a man and woman.
The case caught national attention when it was found that his family bribed doctors to swap the blood specimen to avoid alcohol detection in the teen’s blood.
