KUALA LUMPUR (May 8, 2010): Two youths are being detained for 60 days under the Emergency Ordinance for suspected involvement in 300 snatch theft cases reported in the Klang Valley.
Deputy Cheras police chief Supt Abdul Rahim Hamzah Osman said the youths, aged 22 and 20, were detained since Thursday pending gathering of evidence to charge them in court.
He said the 22 year-old suspect was also detained for a case involving death.
"The investigation papers on their cases had been submitted to the public prosecutors' office for further action, but due to lack of evidence, they are detained under the Ordinance Act," he told reporters here today.
He said the two suspects were detained at separate locations after more than four-months on the run.
Police were looking for their accomplice, aged 22 and from Batu Caves, he added.
Meanwhile, a corporal from the Jalan Bandar traffic police, who was detained for insulting the modesty of two women, has been released on police bail.

versus
"traffic police, who was detained for insulting the modesty of two women, has been released on police bail."
The one without evidence goes to an ISA like imprisonment (maybe for 2 years)
And the one charge with evidences got bail out
