ジムのロッカーから大金見つかる

ペタリン・ジャヤ：「あなたはジムに行くのに、どのくらいの現金を持っていきますか？」
先週金曜日、スバンジャヤのジムでロッカーの中から120万リンギット（日本円で約3600万円）が入ったバックが置かれているのをジムの従業員が発見した。不審に思ったジムのマネージャーが警察に通報して事件が発覚した。警察は今月ＫＬＩＡで起きた350万円の強奪事件との関連があるのではないかと調べているが、今回発見された現金はマレーシア・リンギットと英ポンドであったことから、事件の関連性はないものと思われる。（ＫＬＩＡの事件では現金はシンガポール・ドルが奪われた）

RM1.2m find in gym locker

PETALING JAYA: How much money would you have on you when going to the gym or fitness centre for a workout?

Only sufficient for drinks or a meal after a hectic workout, right?

Wrong! Someone apparently had other plans when he or she went to a gym in Subang Jaya last Friday.

A supervisor at a well known fitness centre there found RM1.2mil in a bag in one of the lockers when closing for the day. The centre closes for business around midnight.

Scared and dumbfounded the supervisor contacted his manager who then called the police. Police were equally shocked to find such a huge amount of cash in the locker.

Initial investigations centred on the April 9 KL International Airport heist, where two moneychangers were robbed of RM3.5mil after being shot by six armed robbers.

However, police ruled out that possibility as the money in the bag was in Malaysian currency and British pounds. The KLIA heist was in Singapore dollars.

Selangor police have questioned several suspects in connection with the KLIA heist but have made no arrests.

However, for the gym find they have yet to ascertain where the RM1.2mil came from or who was assigned the locker that day.

Selangor CID chief Senior Asst Comm II Mazlan Mansor would only confirm that police were investigating, and declined to elaborate.
