Nyaris di culik lelaki Kemboja

oleh Wan Faizal Ismayatim

KUALA LUMPUR: Jeritan seorang ibu memanggil anak perempuannya berusia enam tahun, menyelamatkan kanak-kanak itu daripada diculik seorang lelaki warga Kemboja ketika mereka sedang berjalan selepas menikmati makan malam di sebuah restoran di Taman Melati Utama di sini, malam kelmarin.Suspek berjaya diberkas bapa mangsa yang mengekori lelaki itu lebih dua kilometer dari tempat kejadian di kawasan letak kereta berhampiran restoran itu, termasuk mempertaruhkan nyawa melintas Lebuh Raya Lingkaran Tengah 2 (MRR2).

Dalam kejadian jam 8.40 malam itu, Nurfarihah Saifuddin, sedang berjalan bersama ibunya, XXXX ke kenderaan mereka sebelum tiba-tiba suspek menghulur kedua-dua tangan dan cuba menerkam mangsa menyebabkan wanita berkenaan menjerit memanggil anaknya. Saya terkejut dengan tindakan suspek cuba menerkam  XYXY. Saya segera memberitahu suami berhubung perkara itu sebelum beliau cuba mencari lelaki terbabit dengan memandu kenderaan sekitar deretan rumah kedai di situ,” katanya yang masih trauma ketika ditemui di rumahnya di Taman Bunga Raya di sini, semalam. 

YYYY  pula berkata, selepas tiga kali berpusing di deretan rumah kedai berkenaan, beliau terserempak suspek yang bersendirian di Petronas tidak jauh dari lokasi kejadian dan terus mengekorinya ke sebuah lagi stesen minyak sebelum lelaki terbabit melintas MRR2 dan berjalan di tepi laluan arah Hulu Klang. Katanya, beliau kemudian meninggalkan kenderaannya di stesen minyak terbabit sebelum nekad untuk turut melintas lebuh raya berkenaan bagi mengekori suspek dan pada masa sama menghubungi polis. 

“Sebaik suspek tiba di bawah jambatan berdekatan flet blok F Taman Melati, beberapa anggota polis tiba dan menahannya sebelum dibawa ke balai polis,” katanya. YYYY berkata, kejadian hampir menimpa anaknya mengingatkan beliau dengan kisah pembunuhan kejam Nurin Jazlin Jazimin kerana pernah bersama-sama bapa kanak-kanak malang itu, Jazimin Abdul Jalil, mencari mangsa kerana mereka berdua adalah rakan sekolah sekitar 1980-an.

Ketua Polis Daerah Sentul, Asisten Komisioner Zakaria Pagan, ketika dihubungi mengesahkan penahanan suspek berusia 33 tahun itu dan siasatan mendapati tiada sentuhan fizikal oleh lelaki terbabit terhadap kanak-kanak berkenaan kerana sempat melarikan diri selepas mendengar jeritan ibu mangsa. “Polis sedangmenjalankan siasatan kemungkinan suspek bertujuan menculik atau mempunyai motif lain ke atas kanak-kanak itu. Pada masa sama ibu bapa dinasihatkan supaya sentiasa peka terhadap keselamatan anak-anak,” katanya.

International texts.
Malaysia is not signatory of the Hague Convention of 1993 on transborder parental abductions.

(3) Means of investigation
In Malaysia, the Royal Malaysia Police (RMP) is responsible for investigation of missing persons cases. The RMP has two departments tasked with investigation of missing persons. The first one is tasked with investigating normal missing persons cases whereby the elements of crime has not been established. It is handled by the assistant director, public affairs division, management department, Royal Malaysia Police headquarters, Bukit Aman, 50560, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. When there are elements of crime, such as abduction or kidnapping, the investigation will be handled by the director criminal investigation department, Royal Malaysia Police Headquarters, Bukit Aman, 50560 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

In Malaysia, cases of missing persons is dealt solely by the RMP. Reports of missing persons can be made at any police station in the country and will be immediately referred to the police station of the area where the incident has taken place. A complete information of each case will be disseminated to all police stations nationwide via the on-line computer system. Close monitoring will be made by the RMP headquarters.
All information is stored in the central data bank at the RMP headquarters and it is also accessible by all police stations countrywide via the on-line system.
RMP have been getting the full support of various other government agencies, NGO's and private sectors. Although, they are not involved in the investigation process, they have been actively assisting in the tracing and preventive efforts such as making publicity, campaigns etc.
From time to time, messages are conveyed through the local mass media such as radio, television, newspaper, public information kiosks at shopping malls and soon they will be circulated on the Internet via the RMP website.All kinds of information, including that of missing children can be given to the police via the police operation rooms located at all police districts, contingents (state) and federal headquarters. The telephone numbers of these operation rooms are disseminated to the general public from time to time. 

So  friends, get them for your keeping in case of any emergencies.

p/s    children of middle-class or upper-class, yet the problem does span all sosio-economic levels, are too often stolen away from their families and homes. Kidnappers can work in sophisticated groups, following family members to learn routines or working with the help of hired domestic employees. This is why it is important to carefully screen all residential employees and to avoid flashy displays of wealth in public places. Most of all, always keep your child close and under your surveillance before its too late to realise that she/he is gone.

What are your children doing when you're not there? 

What are they saying? Where are they? Above all, are they safe?
