‘Doctor Tamper’ replicated serial numbers on stolen engines


KUALA LUMPUR: For over a decade, a vehicle theft syndicate offered a cheaper and more convenient alternative to replacing the engines of broken-down lorries and heavy vehicles used at construction sites.

The engines were taken from a variety of stolen vehicles, including lorries of different classes, excavators and backhoes.
