Ok ok, a wife saves the abducted husband. She did her own detective work…
but hey, is that meaning to say she is a better detective than the police?
If I’m head /chief /captain of PDRM, I certainly will employ her for crime investigation.

Wife saves abducted husband By Brenda Lim 2009/03/02
IPOH: A teacher did her own detective work which led to the rescue of her husband who had been abducted and assaulted for more than 26 hours. V. Kamala searched for her husband after police brushed aside her complaint and put her husband’s disappearance down to a domestic dispute. Police allegedly told her to come back later to lodge a missing person’s report as it had not been 24 hours since he disappeared. It was learnt that her husband, R. Chandran, 39, an executive with a manufacturing company, had been abducted after making a withdrawal at an ATM. He was taken to a house where he was beaten up while his abductors made plans to demand a RM50,000 ransom. The drama started at 11.30pm on Feb 14 when Chandran went to an ATM in Bercham to withdraw RM200. As he was walking towards his vehicle, two men in their early 20s confronted him, he told reporters after his rescue. One of them hit Chandran on the head and pushed him into the back of his Kia Sportage before the other man drove off. Kamala, meanwhile, waited for him. When he did not show up the following morning, she started looking for him. At 6.30pm, she went to the Tambun police station where she was told to come back later. Undeterred, the 38-year-old woman went back four hours later, this time with photographs of her husband. She then lodged the missing person’s report. Accompanied by a neighbour, Kamala scoured the city, checking hospitals and her husband’s usual hangouts. At almost midnight on Feb 15, Kamala spotted her husband’s car, with a few youths in it, and followed it until one of the passengers got off at a house in Persiaran Bercham Selatan 47. While Kamala was trying to contact the police, a mobile patrol unit drove by and she told them what had happened. The policemen went into the house and found it was occupied by college students. They confronted the youth who had been dropped off there earlier. The youth took the police and Kamala to a house in Taman Tasek Jaya, where Chandran was found. He was bloodied from the beatings but was still able to talk. There was no one else there. Chandran’s vehicle was later found abandoned at Bandar Baru Medan Ipoh. The New Straits Times caught up with Chandran at his house and he related what happened. “They took turns to beat me. I was kicked in the face and punched. They threatened to kill me. “I begged them to let me go, since they promised they would if I gave them what they wanted.” Chandran was hospitalised for six days but is still undergoing physiotherapy as his hands have limited function due to nerve damage. © Copyright 2009 The New Straits Times Press (M) Berhad.
