House Break-in at USJ23/5A on 22/01/2009 during the day

Dear Residents

There was a house break-in closer to home yesterday. A corner house along USJ23/5A was broken into during the day.

I want to highlight to you guys some details

1. we are a gated and guarded community.
2. there was a fierce dog "unleashed" and guarding the house.
3. there was an alarm system (but sadly it was not turned on).
4. the last time a house was broken into at USJ23 was back in November 2003

These robber/s were professionals at work, they cut the alarm wires (they did not know that the alarm system was not turned on), hacked in from the back side entrance, - they even used the laundry left out to dry as cover, broke the interior doors and ransacked the whole house.

As you can imagine cash and jewellery were taken, nothing else - (sorry about this KK I am sure there was). Passports, air tickets, Aussie $ Bank Draft and personal documents were left untouched which would indicate that these robber/s are educated enough to know what is of value.

This is yet another reminder that we must not be complacent even if we think that we have taken all the necessary precautions to safe guard our home and properties, especially during these hard times.

Every effort helps in the prevention of Crime, Alert Residents, Alert Neighbours, Alert Guards and Alert Police.

So if you are going away this coming festive period inform your neighbours and make sure you register for the Balik Kampung - Rumah Selamat Campaign.
