IPOH: He’s just 15 and still a schoolboy, but with a liking for guns. He ordered five air rifles complete with ammunition online.

But they didn’t get past the post office. The secondary school student was arrested after the Ipoh post office found the five air rifles with the brass pellets that he had ordered without an import permit.
