I know Kapar is well-known for criminal activities and gangsterism, but this is terrible. The young ones also following the footsteps of hooligans and criminals. Using penknife to rob a house??? Now we not only have to worry about hardcore robbers, foreigner robbers, and burglars, but kids who are robbers!

They may be only aged 10 to 12, but the three boys are already armed robbers. What is more shocking is that, after being released on bail, the trio — two of whom are brothers — were overheard bragging about their exploits to their friends.

The transformation from petty criminals to armed robbery came when they threatened a 10-year-old boy, alone at home, with a penknife and took the jewellery belonging to their victim’s mother.

The boys were caught when they sold a pair of large oil lamps worth RM4,000 to a scrap metal dealer, who has also been arrested.
