House Broken Into

Not my house though. It was my PILs house in Kelantan.

2 nights ago, Bob told me about the break-in and said my ILs both lost their phones and my FIL's RM2,000 was gone as well. Actually the last time I was there, I already noticed that their front door's lock was flimsy and it's easy to break into the house, but I thought it's all peace and harmony there that's why the old folks wasn't worried.

But I guess now they will take more precautions and reinforce a stronger lock for their house.

It was night, and both my ILs were sleeping in the bedrooms upstairs. Lucky thing was the burglar (I guess there is only one) only targetted downstairs so both of them were left unhurt and they were totally unaware of the break-in until the next morning. Guess the burglar was happy to have the RM2K lah.

One thing that puzzled me though. Why did my FIL left so much money in the drawers downstairs instead of in his bedroom? Then again, it might be this decision that kept him safe. In any case, I know the pinch he felt for losing the money. RM2K is a lot of money for a retiree.

I'm just glad the old folks are safe and unhurt. That's the most important. Tomorrow we will go search for some cheap and good handphones for the old folks.
