What made the Bangladeshi victim suspect the men were not real police?

Question

Accepted Answer

Bangladeshi Victim Grew Suspicious Due to Deviation from Stated Destination

The Bangladeshi victim became suspicious that the men robbing him were not genuine police officers because they failed to drive him to the Pantai Remis Police Station as they had threatened, and instead proceeded in a different direction. This deviation from their stated intention, coupled with being forced into a vehicle and handcuffed, raised his doubts about their authenticity.
Unstated Destination Raised Victim's Suspicions

The victim was allegedly robbed by two men who identified themselves as police officers. They seized his bag containing RM8,000 in cash and threatened to take him to the Pantai Remis Police Station for further inspection. However, their subsequent movement away from the intended police station prompted the victim's suspicion that he was being targeted for robbery rather than being taken in for a legitimate police procedure.
Confrontation Led to Escape Attempt

Upon realising the potential deception, the victim took action by grabbing the steering wheel while inside the Nissan X-Trail SUV. This resulted in the vehicle veering onto the road shoulder in Segari, near Lumut. The two suspects then fled with the victim’s cash, reportedly by stopping a passing motorcyclist to facilitate their escape from the scene.
Syndicate Arrested Hours Later

Acting on information received, police apprehended three local men later that same evening, around 8:30 pm, along Jalan Besar Gunung Tunggal in Changkat Keruing. These arrests occurred within hours of the reported incident, and police also seized a Nissan X-Trail, mobile phones, ATM cards, cash, handcuffs, and an auxiliary police authority card believed to be connected to the case.
