Ready for a big Chinese New Year bang in Kuching



The firecrackers seized from the two women.
KUCHING: A police team from Badruddin Road Monday night arrested two women after firecrackers were found in one of the rooms in their house. Following a public tip-off, the police team raided the house at about midnight. The two women were brought to the Simpang Tiga police station for further investigation.It was unclear who kept the firecrackers inside the house and the amount of firecrackers was still being sorted out as the boxes of firecrackers were already opened, ready to be sold.The two women in their 30s and 60s when arrested claimed that the firecrackers belonged to their brother and both of them did not know what their brother kept inside the room.In another case, a police officer received information from the Sarawak General Hospital Emergency ward yesterday that a middle-age man was seriously injured.The man, identified as Voon Choon Choi, sustained serious head injury and could have been beaten with a hard object.Police are investigating the case.
