Home of minister broken into

City CID chief Datuk Ku Chin Wah said in the 5.30pm incident, the trio, who had come in a Proton Waja car, scaled the perimeter wall before barging into the house through the front door which was unlocked.

He said the suspects ran off with several laptops and watches.

"The minister and his wife were not at home and only their maid was around.

"The maid was too terrified to do anything. She said they also ransacked the master bedroom," he said in a statement here today.

He added that total losses were still being investigated.
