Remaja perempuan disyaki terlibat kes curi kabel ditahan

Dungun Police Chief Nik Ab Halim Nik Mat announced the arrest of an 18-year-old teenager in connection with a cable theft case. The female minor was taken into custody around 3 a.m. following a report of a lost 150mm TNB cable estimated to be around 1,000 meters in length, valued at RM8,000. IPD Dungun rushed to the scene as the suspect attempted to flee.

As a result of further investigation, police arrested a local 18-year-old male in a vehicle. The police also seized a vehicle, several TNB cables and cutting tools, as well as a bag containing equipment believed to be related to the incident. Initial findings suggest the cable was cut using cutting equipment before the wires were thrown away to obtain copper wire.

The teenager was brought to Dungun Magistrate's Court today and remanded for four days until September 27th to aid the investigation under Section 379 of the Criminal Offences Act due to theft.
