16-year-old boy held over bid to extort money

PETALING JAYA: Police arrested a 16-year-old youth yesterday morning in connection with the abduction of Sharlinie Mohd Nashar.
He had demanded RM5,000 together with RM200 pre-paid top-up from Sharlinie's father, Mohd Nashar Mat Hussain, through several phone calls.Selangor Criminal Investigation Department chief Senior Assistant Commissioner II Mazlan Mansor said the youth was detained after Nashar lodged a police report on the matter. He was remanded for four days to facilitate investigations. Evidence in connection with the case was also seized from the suspect.Mazlan said the youth had made several calls to Nashar over the past few days with the demands.

my comment:
how come this 16-year-old boy did such things?he was trying to fool police, Sharlinie's family and also other people. Hoping that this incident will be a lesson to public for not doing that thing again. In my opinion, parents should always keep an eye on their kids so that their children will be under their control. For those who are involved in Sharlinie's case please be patient and always pray to God and someday we will find Sharlinie in a very good condition and harmless.
