Caught on camera: A CCTV footage showing the face of the robbery suspect in Subang Jaya.
SUBANG JAYA: The security guard who shot dead a bank officer is believed to be a foreigner.
Selangor deputy police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Abdul Rahim Jaafar confirmed that the suspect was using a fake MyKad.
“Initial investigations revealed that the suspect maybe an Indonesian,” he said when contacted Thursday.
He added two men and a woman, believed to be the suspect’s friends, have been detained to facilitate investigations.
DCP Abdul Rahim refuted speculation that the suspect has been caught.
“We believe he is still in Selangor,” he said.
He added hours after the gruesome
robbery-cum-murder, rumours were circulated by SMS claiming that the man
was captured while he was trying to board a plane at an airport here.
“It is not true ... people should refrain from spreading false information,” he said.
He added police would also investigate the security company for hiring a security guard with a fake MyKad.
Subang Jaya deputy OCPD Supt Tan Ah Chua said a special task force was formed following the robbery on Wednesday.
He added that the information on the fake MyKad showed the name was Ardi Hamza (770818-12-6721) from Tawau in Sabah.
“Bank officials have yet to inform the police on how much money was stolen from the vault,” he said.
Meanwhile, the bank where the crime happened has been closed until next Monday for investigations.
In addition, a CCTV video of the
shooting has leaked on the Internet, depicting the last moments of bank
office Norazita Abu Talib before she was shot.
The 33-second video showed an office
room and an open door where Noazita, in red was standing with a female
colleague wearing white.
As Noazita turned, she suddenly collapsed and her colleague was seen covering her face and ears.
It is estimated the Noazita was shot from a distance of about 5m away.
The assailant then ran towards the safe from behind the camera and dragged Noazita’s frantic colleague out of the room.
He then walked over Noazita’s
motionless stationarybody and coldly proceeded to take the money from
the safe and put it into a bag.
Ambank Group corporate communication head Syed Anuar Syed Ali said the company denied any of its staff had uploaded the footage.
He added the company have not made any decision on whether to cease the services of the security company or otherwise.linkTS
