August Newsletter - Updated

Dear Residents,


After our RED ALERT notice which was sent to all residents in USJ 11/3 last week, more cases were reported with regards to this suspected gang and other incidents

In view of the many incidents in and around our area, we are going to take steps to ensure we curb potential crimes and criminals coming into our area. We plan to implement and strengthen our security checks at all our 3 entry and exits.  


Incidents reported:

We would like to highlight a few recent cases which took place. There were two robbery cases reported in USJ 18 and USJ 20 a few weeks ago.

And just last week, the infamous masked gang armed with parang also strucked USJ 18 twice. In the first incident, 3 men came in a Toyota Avanza and robbed the tenants of a house while in another incident, 2 men came on a motorcycle.

In another incident in USJ 17, a resident had parked his car in front of the Seven-Eleven and entered the shop to buy something while his wife was still in the car. A couple of men then entered the car and drove off with her in it. They then brought her to a secluded area, raped and abandoned her and drove away the car.

These are just cases that we know of and are highlighting it to you.

 
Beefing up our security measures:

Because of this incident, we are not taking any chances but to put everyone on high alert and we will beef up the security.

For a start, all tuition centers operating in our area are advised to get the visitor passes. Likewise all contractors & renovators will be registered and issued with work passes.

Paying and non paying members alike WILL ALL be issued with car stickers. This will allow for better enforcement as residents in our area can easily be identified.  Please check with the respective Street Leaders if you have not been issued any car stickers as soon as possible.

Once this is exercise is done, strict checks on entry and exist on cars without valid stickers will be carried out. We hope to get the full co-operation from all residents.


Police Dialogue:

We are making arrangement with Tuan Basil of USJ8 Police Station to come to our area for a dialogue with the residents. Once we have established the date, we will inform all the residents of the venue, date and time. This is also in preparation for the Raya holidays getaway.

According to the Police, they also suspect that some of the robbers may be residents within the communities who knows have been observing our every movement. They could also be the ones who are objecting to the G&G program, in ensuring that it fails.

The Police have been very cooperative and is willing to work with the Resident’s Association to minimize crime.

We would like to advise all residents to be busy bodies especially when we noticed strangers in our community and be united in the interest of our family safety.

Thank you.

The Committee
11 Trees @ USJ
