saco-indonesia.com, Sejumlah maling bertopeng ala ninja telah beraksi membobol dua rumah di Lingkungan Bukit Indah RT 001 RW 006, Kelurahan Seketeng, Kecamatan Sumbawa, Nusa Tenggara Barat. Sejumlah uang telah berhasil dibawa kabur oleh pelaku.
"Kasus pencurian itu telah terjadi pada Rabu (12/2) kemarin dini hari sekitar pukul 02.30 dinihari WITA. Kami juga telah mendatangi lokasi untuk dapat melakukan olah TKP dan hingga kini kasusnya dalam penyelidikan intensif," kata Kasat Reskrim AKP Erwan Yudha Perkasa.
Menurut dia, dalam menjalankan aksinya, maling yang diduga lebih dari satu orang ini telah memanjat tembok rumah korban Sudarli setinggi empat meter.
Selanjutnya, maling turun dengan menggunakan tali dan masuk dalam kamar korban. Dari rumah pegawai Dinas Diknas Sumbawa itu, pelaku dengan leluasa telah berhasil menggondol laptop, notebook, empat handphone Samsung, serta uang tunai Rp1 juta.
Setelah berhasil menggondol barang berharga milik Sudarli, para maling beraksi ke rumah sebelahnya. Rumah itu telah dimiliki oleh saudara ipar Sudarli, yakni Abdul Rahman.
Sama seperti aksi pada rumah Sudarli, maling lebih dulu memanjat tembok, turun dengan menggunakan tali, lalu masuk ke dalam kamar anak Abdul Rahman. Sejumlah barang seperti laptop dan handphone telah diambil maling dari kamar tersebut.
"Korban juga baru mengetahui pencurian itu saat para pelaku sudah meninggalkan tempat," ujar Erwan.
Kasus pencurian di dua rumah ini juga sudah ditangani oleh penyidik Reserse dan Kriminal (Reskrim) Polres Sumbawa, setelah korban melaporkannya secara resmi.
Nepal’s Young Men, Lost to Migration, Then a Quake

KATHMANDU, Nepal — When the dense pillar of smoke from cremations by the Bagmati River was thinning late last week, the bodies were all coming from Gongabu, a common stopover for Nepali migrant workers headed overseas, and they were all of young men.
Hindu custom dictates that funeral pyres should be lighted by the oldest son of the deceased, but these men were too young to have sons, so they were burned by their brothers or fathers. Sukla Lal, a maize farmer, made a 14-hour journey by bus to retrieve the body of his 19-year-old son, who had been on his way to the Persian Gulf to work as a laborer.
“He wanted to live in the countryside, but he was compelled to leave by poverty,” Mr. Lal said, gazing ahead steadily as his son’s remains smoldered. “He told me, ‘You can live on your land, and I will come up with money, and we will have a happy family.’ ”
Weeks will pass before the authorities can give a complete accounting of who died in the April 25 earthquake, but it is already clear that Nepal cannot afford the losses. The countryside was largely stripped of its healthy young men even before the quake, as they migrated in great waves — 1,500 a day by some estimates — to work as laborers in India, Malaysia or one of the gulf nations, leaving many small communities populated only by elderly parents, women and children. Economists say that at some times of the year, one-quarter of Nepal’s population is working outside the country.
