Mas Selamat JI leader nabbed in Skudai


KUALA LUMPUR: Fugitive Mas Selamat Kastari, one of the region’s most wanted terrorists, was nabbed while he was sound asleep in a secluded kampung house in Skudai, Johor.

The Singaporean terrorist who captured world attention when he escaped from the republic’s maximum security Whitley Detention Centre in February last year, could barely put up a fight in his shorts and T-shirt when caught during a dawn raid in April.
