Jui Meng’s son escapes kidnap attempt after suspects crash car


KUALA LUMPUR: Two youths tried to abduct a son of former health minister Datuk Chua Jui Meng but their attempt ended when they crashed his Mercedes Benz into a side railing after a 3km high-speed chase yesterday. 

The driver had apparently panicked when a detective on a motorcycle approached the car and signalled to him to pull over. Passers-by who saw the crash and heard Damien Chua Chor Wey, 27, shouting for help, rushed to the car.
