JOHOR BARU, Oct 11 — Police have detained a businessman and his two personal guards on suspicion of being road bullies and seized from them two Glock pistols following a report on an incident at Taman Mutiara Rini here last Wednesday.
In the incident, the complainant, in his 20s, claimed that the three men had stopped him, for allegedly driving at high speed in the housing area, and forced him, who was at the wheel of a Toyota Vios, and a friend to get out of the car.
He claimed that one of personal guards flipped his shirt to show a pistol at the waist when he and his friend refused to get of the car and then the three suspects kicked his car, causing it to be dented.
Following the incident, the driver of the Toyota Vios lodged a police report. Nusajaya district police chief Supt Noor Hashim Mohamad told a media conference today that the police also seized two magazines, 22 rounds of ammunition, two pistol casings, four copies of firearm licence forms and a Proton Wira car from the suspects.
He said the suspects, in their 30s, were in remand for further investigation.
In another development, he said, the police had also detained three suspects, aged between 18 and 21, in connection with a robbery at a factory at Lima Kedai, Gelang Patah last Wednesday.
He said the suspects were also believed responsible for five robbery cases reported in Nusajaya and Johor Baru Utara. — Bernama
