Suspects in Penang carjacking arrested

 


Police have arrested three men in connection with the carjacking at the Jalan Bagan Lalang traffic light near Kepala Batas on Wednesday, which has gone viral on social media.

Seberang Perai Utara district police chief ACP Mohd Asri Shafie said the trio, aged 27 to 49, were arrested separately in Seberang Jaya and Butterworth, and Kuala Kangsar, Perak yesterday.

“In the 7.45am incident, the victim, who was driving a Perodua Axia, had stopped at the traffic light before three men suddenly dragged him out of the vehicle and drove it away.

“The preliminary investigation found that the incident was caused by the victim’s mother’s failure to pay back the RM100,000 she borrowed from a man in 2020,” he said in a statement today.

Asri said the woman, in a written agreement, agreed to surrender the Perodua Axia car if she failed to pay her debt.

Further investigations found that the creditor had hired car repossessors to take away the Axia, he added.

He said that following the arrest, police managed to recover the car, and the three suspects were under drug influence when they were caught.

The case is being investigated under Section 395 of the Penal Code.
