Security firm supervisor scares rival company guards to secure contracts

SUBANG JAYA: He didn't get contracts to manage security for gated communities in the neighbourhoods in USJ.

His solution?

Beat up rival companies security guards to intimidate them into leaving, in order for his security company to move in.

This was the game plan hatched by a 30-year-old security company supervisor, who was caught last Friday after bashing up no less than four security guards from rival companies.

During one of the attacks on Feb 10, a security guard was approached by the suspect who was armed with a meat cleaver.

Subang Jaya district police chief ACP Yahya Ramli, said during the attack the victim was at his guard house in USJ 19/1 about 7.40pm.

"The suspect tried to slash the victim, but the victim managed to avoid the attack and ran towards his company car and locked himself inside. Not satisfied, the suspect came towards the car and started kicking it prompting the victim to drive to a nearby police station to lodge a report," said Yahya.

Following the incident police raided an office in Kelana Jaya and detained the suspect and two other Nepalese, aged 31 and 39, believe to be the suspect's workers.

"So far our investigation show the suspect and his workers were involved in four similar incidents and the victims are from two separate security firms."

It is learnt the suspect's security firm is based in Kelana Jaya.
