The royal family was out for a 70th birthday celebration at a hotel when their bungalow in Section 16 was broken into and family belongings worth more than MYR $2 million were stolen. Burglars climbed over a back wall and got in the house from the kitchen. Three rooms were ransacked and a safe on the upper floor was opened as if someone knew the combination. A pile of gold jewellery, luxury watches, gold coins and cash were taken from the vault. A pistol, two ammunition magazines and 62 bullets were also stolen. 

According to the neighbors, a lorry truck and three cars were parked outside the house while the royal family was out. They did not activate the security system as they only left the house for a couple of hours. A closed-circuit television camera did not record anything either. SOURCE: The Sun Daily, The Star
