Car break-ins in Taman Rakyat,Taman Sri Andalas

A spate of car break-ins happened in Taman Rakyat lately.The most recent one was last Tuesday (22/07/2008),a Proton Saga was broken into and a handset and some cash were stolen.
Prior to this incident,l was told that a suspect was caught and handed over to the authority on the previous Saturday (19/07/2008).This made me believe that the culprits work in groups of two or three.

Despite of numerous warning and reminder,some visitors still leave their valuable in their cars, thinking nobody knows where and when they hide them.

It was sighted that some suspicious men, dress smartly,parked their heavily tinted car among the unsuspecting victims.They are believed to observe their victims movement and once the owner leave,one will act as lookout while another breaks in.They are professional at work and it only take them several minutes to grab whatever valuable,and mind you,they know where to look for.

Here are some tips, hopefully they can help to prevent the break-ins.

1. Do not change your clothes in your car or nearby washroom-they are watching where you're hiding your belongings.

2. Do not leave your lap top inside your car, even in the rear boot.I was told that by using a special device,one can detect the present of lap tops.

3. If you are going there for a walk,carry along your handset.

4. Always activate your car's alarm system,do not lock your car manually i.e using key

5. Tell your friends if you see anybody looks suspicious,at least more will realize their present and able to nap the culprits if they break into cars.

6. Do not leave anything visible especially handbags or suitcases in both front or rear seats.

We welcome any suggestions to prevent crime in our only green lung in the Klang vicinity.

Mr Tee, this happened in the evening? Too bad. It wasn't heard of when I started going to the park a few years ago.
