Fed up with harassment from loan sharks, a family in Johor decided to take matters into their own hands and laid an ambush at their house for two nights.
On the second night, they caught two runners splashing paint on their house walls, and chased after them on foot, smashing the loan sharks’ vehicle windscreen and windows in the process. Speaking to Shin Min Daily News, a fish vendor in Singapore, surnamed Seah, 35, said his 61-year-old mother in Malaysia received a call from an"Ah Lim" in July, claiming that Seah has owed him S$1,000 since 2021.
Ah Lim, who claimed to be from Singapore, threatened Seah's mother to pay $13,000 or he would burn down her house in Johor Bahru.Seah's family went to their local member of parliament for help, who helped them address the situation at a press conference. But even after the Malaysian press reported on their plight, the harassment didn't stop, Seah said.
