What has happened to BJ has happened. In TD life we learn from
experience (which is the best teacher still) and from the mistakes
of others (and our own of course)..
Let's move on on the incident and focus on what must be done to
nab the fella.
BJ you should share the following:
1) What has the IO told you? If the attacker is spotted, I
believe he would advise to call for the police to ascertain his
particulars right?
2) Describe the guy. Exact height, skin colour (I know Indian,
dark indian, brown Indian etc?) The shoes worn (ppl change clothes
but shoes usually wear the same) Any glasses, any features, any bag
carried? If others spot somoen resembling this guy, pls do not
confront, but observe, where he work or stay and call BJ down to
verify.
3) If happen to fetch someone matching him to the said location
or from there, do the following, try to get a screenshot on either
your phone or your vehicle in-camera if have.
If possible try to get him to pay by card, he complain about
charges, pay the charges for him (ie: give him back the 10% or
30cts or whatever) Apologise and say you got no change for 50, or
just run out of notes, wanted to change money. Don't worry I don't
think he too foolish to strike again.
4) For BJ, altho press reports will make the police try harder,
you gotta find out the status of things from the IO. I think this
is most likely D Div case, unless they look at pick up point which
is A (Central). The IO has other cases, he will only do armchair
investigations, what you must do is encourage him. See which NPC
this comes under (I think this is the Queenstown one - next to
Queensway shopping centre). They might be able to work more on
this, or if CC Dr comes under another NPC, they will be the ones to
do so. Here we need to retrieve cameras on the day, at Coleman and
North Bridge Road.
Bottomline you got to help the police if you want justice. But
it's also not justice for yourself as you will prevent others from
behaving like this, if he is caught.
Do update us on the investigations by police and CDG.
