KUALA LUMPUR, April 4 — The police were forced to open fire before apprehending three suspected kidnappers in a car along Jalan Cengkeh in Taman Cheras today.
Cheras district police chief ACP Aidil Bolhassan said the suspects, males aged between 24 and 30, were inside a Perodua Aruz together with a man believed to have been kidnapped in Taman Nusa Bestari, Johor, earlier in the morning.
“At 2.30pm when a police car stopped and instructed the suspects to exit their vehicle, they repeatedly rammed the police vehicle in an attempt to flee,” he said in a statement.
To stop their actions, which posed a threat to the safety of the officers, several shots were fired at the suspects’ vehicle tyres.
The 26-year-old victim is believed to have been abducted in front of an entertainment outlet at 5.47am, as captured by a closed-circuit television recording.
The motive behind the kidnapping is still under investigation.
