Sweet-talker admits to rape and cheating

TAIPING: A sweet-talking con man has cheated 23 people and raped at least two women here since 2003.

The 29-year-old, from Bukit Mertajam, was arrested in Jalan Simpang here on Jan 20 and has admitted to the crimes.

Larut Matang and Selama OCPD Asst Comm Mohd Amin Abdullah was not amused with the man’s tactic of using a fictitious name similar to his.

"When he befriends a Muslim female victim, he would introduce himself as a Chinese Muslim convert, identifying himself as Mohd Amin Tan Abdullah," he said.

To his non-Muslim victims, he would talk them into believing that he had the ability to forecast four-digit lottery, said ACP Mohd Amin.

"Other than hypnotising his victims, he appeared quite convincing, speaking words which were apparently sweet to the ears of his victims," he added.

Those with information on the case can contact DSP G. Indraraja at tel: 05-808-0222.
