They finally attempted to kidnap her, she added. While the lady took her case containing 400 dinars, the person held her shoulder and pretended to be her father.

” Based on CCTV tapes and professional facts, no activity involving the sufferer was detected at the place”, M Kumar, police chief for Johor state, which includes the area of Johor Bahru, told reporters.
After Ho allegedly reported the alleged abduction try,” Social media influencers even commented on the problem, framing it as a threat to the safety of visitors visiting Johor,” according to Malaysian police.
Police added that strict measures may become taken against “anyone who purposefully spreads rumors or uses statistics to frighten the people, especially in regards to safety concerns.”
Johor Bahru is located at the end of the approximately one-kilometer-long canal that connects Singapore’s neighboring Singapore’s northern border with Malaysia.
About 300, 000 riders pass through the canal daily, according to Singaporean advertising. Both Singapore and Malaysia just designated the region as a special economic zone, aiming to get more business.
