IPOH: Three robbers who had been terrorising their victims since July last year finally paid with their lives during a shootout with the police.

Believed to be foreigners, they were about to break into a house at Jalan Lasah, Sungai Siput, when a special task force from the state police contingent spotted them at about 4.45am yesterday.
