KUALA LUMPUR: Investigations into a heist at the Wangsa Maju Road Transport Department (RTD) branch by two parang wielding robbers on July 4 here led to the arrest of a RTD clerk and eight others on Wednesday. Kuala Lumpur police chief Commissioner Datuk Amar Singh Ishar Singh said the 40-year-old female clerk who is a staff of the Wangsa Maju RTD branch was the mastermind of the case. He said the other suspects were RTD runners, a female Rela member and an Indonesian man aged between 24 and 67.
