owner of Bengkel JST Auto Mechanics similarly tes�fied that there were three (3)
cars parked across the road from his workshop for three (3) consecu�ve days
before Amri Che Mat’s disappearance. He further tes�fied that one of the said
cars was a gold Toyota Vios. He had taken down the car registra�on number of
the gold Toyota Vios (PFC 1623) as he was afraid that his workshop was being
observed or watched by either car repossessors or people who were up to no
good against him. Vee Yak’s workshop was located 150 metres from and on the
same side of the road as Amri Che Mat’s house along Jalan Padang Behor, Kangar,
Perlis. Hence, Vee Yak was able to see the gold Toyota Vios from his workshop
clearly.

vehicle had never been to Perlis.
