A three-minute length video that has gone viral on social media has caught the attention of Negeri Sembilan police, following the claims that the chilling incident happened somewhere in the state.
In the video, two men can be seen stopping their motorcycle in front of a childcare center. One of them walked slowly to the nursery, carefully trying to enter the gate. Just as he was about to grab a child that happened to be playing with another child just near the gate, an assistant came towards them just in time, instantly causing the men to flee from the scene.
Although the video was originally uploaded on the Negeri Sembilan Facebook group, the Negeri Sembilan Police have not received any report on the attempted kidnapping of such circumstance in the state.
According to the head of the state Criminal Investigation Department (JSJ), Assistant Commissioner Muhammad Izzudin Runggai, "We have run through a review and found that there have been no reports of such incidents at all in the District Police Headquarters (IPD) in the state," he said when contacted by the media. "So, we believe the viral incident did not in fact happen here."
No matter the facts of the case, one thing is clear: extra preventive measures must be taken in ensuring the children in our country are protected. It is with sheer luck that the children in the video were saved just in time. Who knows what could have possibly happened, should the culprits succeed in their cause?
