Closing in: Police arresting the Abu Sayyaf-linked militants at the Desa Baiduri flats in Cheras.
KUALA LUMPUR: Residents at the Desa Baiduri flats in Cheras mostly kept to themselves so it was a great surprise for them when they found out that a notorious Abu Sayyaf gunman had been living among them for two whole years.
The grounds between the 12 blocks of flats are filled with cars and motorcycles, and the shouts of children at play and grumbles of vexed mothers ring through the corridors. Here and there, pungent wafts of garbage and cat faeces can be smelled.
