KUALA LUMPUR, May 23 — National badminton head coach Rexy Mainaky's wife suffered injuries when she was dragged by two snatch thieves in Ampang last night.
Cheras police chief ACP Ahmad Amir Mohd Hashim said in the 11pm incident, Rexy and his wife Henny were walking to their car from a restaurant at Ampang City here when two assailants on a motorcycle tried to grab her handbag.
Henny was injured when she tussled with her assailant, causing her to be dragged and suffering minor injuries to her left arm.
Rexy jumped into his car and chased the suspects and knocked down the thieves’ motorcycle, causing the pillion rider to fall.
Ahmad Amir said passers-by caught the fallen suspect while his accomplice fled the scene.
He added the 33-year-old suspect had six previous records for molest, drugs and Restricted Residence Act offences.
"He will be remanded for four days to facilitate investigation," said Ahmad Amir, adding that police were looking for his accomplice, aged 40.
Meanwhile, Henny received treatment at a private hospital. — Bernama

The politicisation of the police and their emasculation started during the Mahathir years and is now a potent tool of BN.
They are also involved in all sorts of crime, and is it any wonder we have this taiko and that taiko running illegal businesses here and there? Mesin kuda, pimping, drugs etc will never end.
Do you know where your neighbourhood's mesin kuda shop is? I do, and it is in plain sight. The policemen in my area must be blind or blinded.

Just look at Subang jaya and USJ, people are building gates, fences and hiring neigbourhood guards!
What does that say to you? It says keep out, we feel unsafe. We need to hire our own private security force.
The fact is crime rate is very high. What we need is police making rounds, making their presence felt in the streets of Malaysia and not only in Puterajaya (where 40 policemen can arrest 3 men with a cake).
I am a taxpayer and I rather have the PDRM raiding crime syndicate hang outs then raiding DAP's headquarters. The only people who see DAP as a problem is BN.
