Aid Boxes Forced Open In Mosque
By Rahmat Hj Abdul Rahman 

Tutong - Two safety boxes that carried cash meant for the Humanitarian Aid for the Cambodian Islamic Society were ransacked early Sunday morning inside Kampong Bukit Panggal Mosque. 

According to one of the mosque officials, the incident was only discovered before the dawn (Subuh) prayer yesterday when some of the people turned up for the prayer. The official, who wished to remain anonymous, said the missing cash was part of the collection from the mass Friday Prayer, which was not yet counted by the mosque officials.

The Tutong Police Station, when contacted by the Bulletin, confirmed the incident, adding that the two boxes were found forced open by some irresponsible elements using heavy tools.

The police said that finger print samples had been collected at the crime scene to assist them in solving the case.
