KUALA LUMPUR: Intraday short-selling (IDSS) in the shares of Lagenda Properties Bhd has been suspended by Bursa Securities after the counter hit limit down within the first hour of trading.

BATU PAHAT: A 61-year-old man lost RM130,000 after falling for imposters who claimed he had stolen electricity and was involved in money laundering.

The caller accused him of stealing electricity, but the victim denied it, as he owns no properties in Kuantan. “The fake policeman then told the victim that his personal information had been used in money laundering activities,” said Supt Shahrulanuar Mushaddat in a statement on Wednesday .
