KUALA LUMPUR 21 Sept - Police would not reject the speculation that "Kampung Baru Molester" might be involved in the killing of Nurin Jazlin Jazimin, 8 year-old, which her body was found in an awful manner last Monday.

Datuk Christopher Wan Soo Koo, the Director of Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation said that the police force is investigating in all aspects including the "Kampung Baru Molester" which still being hunted by the police force since 3 months ago.

"Police would investigate the death of Nurin Jazlin and hunt the killer of the unfortunate girl."

It's well understood by Utusan Malaysia, that the modus operandi of "Kampung Baru Molester" or "Brother Cat" is kidnapping girls after asking them to find his cat and convincing them with his sad face.

The suspect using this tactic to entice young girls to follow him to find his "lost cat". After being kidnapped, the girls would be molested.

The suspect is believed to use dialogues such as:

"Adik (young sister), did you see Abang's (big brother) cat?"

"Can you find me the cat?"

Emotional breaking of fast for orphans

She was only 5 years old when her mother died of an illness, turning her once happy childhood into one of pain.

Asnur Shamsuri, 9, still cries each time she thinks of her mother and misses the woman who took care of her until her life was cut short.

"Saya rindu (I miss her)," Asnur said in between sobs, wiping her wet face with her white headscarf.
