Police confirm shooting of wanted drug suspect in Seremban housing area

A local man suspected of drug-related activities was shot dead in a Seremban residential area this afternoon.

The suspect, with eight prior offences, was wanted under the Kidnapping Act.

A resident reported seeing patrol cars and police tape after hearing about the gunfire.

SEREMBAN, Sept 6 — Police confirmed a local man suspected of drug-related activities was shot dead in a residential area in Garden Homes here early this afternoon.

Negeri Sembilan police chief Datuk Alzafny Ahmad said the incident occurred at 1.50pm. Further details will be disclosed by the Bukit Aman Narcotics Crime Investigation Department director at the Seremban District Police Headquarters tomorrow.

“Yes, I confirm the incident,” he told reporters here today.

The suspect, believed to be in his 50s, had eight previous records for drug and criminal offences. He was also wanted in connection with a case under the Kidnapping Act.

A resident, who only wanted to be known as Ali, 72, said he was at home after prayers when a neighbour informed him about the incident.

He said the neighbour reported hearing what sounded like several gunshots, though he did not hear them himself as he was indoors.

“After that, I saw many patrol cars and the road leading to the scene was cordoned off with police tape, with vehicles barred from entering.

“This is the first time such an incident has occurred in this residential area. We are concerned about our safety should a similar incident happen again,” he said.

The senior citizen added that about a week ago, residents noticed several suspicious cars parked near the area at midnight. — Bernama

“是的，我确认发生了这起事件，”他今天在这里对记者说。

嫌疑人据信50多岁，此前曾有八项毒品和刑事犯罪记录。他还因涉嫌违反《绑架法》而被通缉。

一位名叫阿里（Ali）的72岁居民表示，他做完祷告后在家，一位邻居告诉他发生了这起事件。

他说，邻居报告说听到几声像是枪响的声音，但他自己因为在室内所以没有听到。
