dun understand how is it embezzlement

 

[BigMonkey]

guess someone didn’t receive the money.

 

[cavver777]

Very intriguing, who outed them? A routine check or they got complacent and gave away vital information ? Usually it's the latter.

Likely some1 up north rat them.

 

[popdod]

What u owe
must pay later.

 

[sunsetbay]

so he & his wife has been hiding in m'sia for the past 19yrs~?

 

[the_dog]

hah ?? evaded capture for 19 years when they were just next door in Malaysia ? can't be that our authorities didn't know where they fled to

 

[quincyster]

Just sit back, relax and wait for the Malaysian police to call us to put up our crooks.

 

[spyder81]

funny he was just living next door enjoying life

That’s why I say want to run don’t because of creature comfort or familiarity choose run to Malaysia like so many others.

Not difficult what with money.

Easy to buy a super ulu place to stay with money and as long stay long profile, no one will check you.

Probably covid lead to some leads

 

[ahnyaahnya]

19 years , that pretty safe

Probably someone rat them out

They must have gotten help from at least someone during those years there.
How to buy / rent a place?
Buy car, mobile phone line etc?
Not likely that they used their true identification for any of that...otherwise they would have been caught long ago.
So the ones who helped them or heard from one of those, somewhere down the line, squealed on them

Didn't keep to terms of their agreement?

 

[HumJiBeng]

How to run 19 years overseas? How to renew passport or extend visa?

 

[fandango]

Caught on the causeway. What irony.

 

[Acetone]

Mas Selamat must be proud of them…

 

[viethai]

Shiok shiok enjoy life 1st

In before in Bolehland got Marnee problem is no problem…

 

[MrAwesomeX]

Citi raya was big back in those days. Many people want to trade this stock.

But they are stupid to think JB is safe for them.

Maybe the cheap housings and empty shopping centres lure them there .... they got conceited and let down their guard and spotted by cheapo sinkees eyeing for bargains in jb .

KL or further north would be more suitable to evade capture .

 

[lifeisinforashock]

Ironic if they return via the RTS.

 

[hoolala]

Why never go a bit north some more into Thailand?

Ex-Malaysians???

 

[SEvsNK]

I duno about u, but If i know 1 day i will be caught and go to jail i sure scared.

Everynight cant sleep well.
