00:45For your information, we urge the public not to borrow money from these ungrateful people.

00:54If you want to borrow money, I think it is better to borrow money from a loan company or a financial institution.

01:03So that you are not trapped by these cases.

01:06For your information, we believe that the suspect is not from our country.

01:15So if we look at the statement, it is a Singaporean telephone number.

01:20The suspect is from Singapore.

01:25When did you get the offer?

01:28For a car or a house, it was RM1,000.

01:32He got the offer through Facebook.

02:00We did a urine test and he is negative.

02:03He did not commit any crime.

02:09So this is an on-the-spot arrest.

02:12The credit should go to the Police Kedah Puteri.

02:16We arrested him at 3.50am.

02:26Actually, we have set up a task force.

02:31We have set up a task force at the IPD.

02:36The task force is led by DSP Rozani.

02:40The task force is led by DSP Rozani.

03:33and that's what the debtors are

03:42the model of Sovereign is the debtors who fail to pay the loan

03:47the debtors who fail to make a profit

03:52and the debtors who don't want to pay the loan

03:55so they will look for the target
