Expat mum: My son was kidnapped in Bangsar

BY SHAUN HO

PETALING JAYA: A 20-month-old baby boy of an expatriate mother has been kidnapped after a man stormed into her house in Bangsar here and took him away.

Language teacher Sarah Joseph, 38, was alone with the baby, having dinner on the porch at about 6.20pm Friday when the man came into the double-storey link house in Jalan Terasek and grabbed the baby, named Freddie, from his chair.

The man ran out of the house and drove off in a white Toyota Camry.

“We hope as many people as possible can help us look out for the man. He could not have gotten far in this traffic,” a friend of the family told reporters soon after the incident.

Kuala Lumpur CID chief Datuk Ku Chin Wah said police have classified the case as kidnapping until further investigations showed otherwise. Police believed the people who took the baby away knew the family. - The Star

Can't wait for Opposition MP N.Surendran, who happens to be the abducted boy's neighbor, to congratulate the IGP and his men. 

... or would Surendran do his usual stunt and appear as counsel for the kidnappers? 

Anyhow, despite all those shortcomings, it must be re-emphasized that our Royal Malaysian Police force is one of the best in the world. 

Well done Tan Sri IGP.

p/s A press conference pertaining this latest development in Freedie Joseph's abduction is expected at 3pm today.
