PETALING JAYA: A bank in Subang
Jaya was robbed and its operations officer shot in the head by a
security guard stationed at the bank, killing her instantly.
Bank officer Norazita Abu Talib, 37, a mother of two children, was opening the door to a safe with a colleague in the bank along Jalan USJ Sentral 2 at around 6.18pm Wednesday when the suspect shot her in the face with a pump gun.
The man then forced the other terrified staff member to load a bag with cash from the safe.
He then made his escape on a motorcycle with a yet-unknown amount of cash.
Selangor deputy police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Abdul Rahim Jaafar said the suspect was the only male staff member among the five stationed at the bank.
"According to the security firm he was meant to be a replacement guard and had worked in another bank next to the crime scene.
"He had been employed by the firm for about a year," he said.
However, he raised concerns over facts of the suspect's identity.
"Checks on his I.C. reveal that it was a fake. We are going to look into this more and find out how he was employed with a fake I.C," he said, adding that cops were also investigating the CCTV footage of the bank and nearby shops.
"I advise the public to be cautious as the man is still on the loose and is armed. I urge anyone with information on him to come forward," he said.
Subang Jaya deputy OCPD Supt Tan Ah Chua revealed that the suspect was identified as Ardi Hamza (770818-12-6721) from Tawau, Sabah.
The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code.
