IPOH: A family here is being harassed by loan sharks demanding the repayment of money the victims say they never borrowed. "What’s most concerning is that they have details of all my children, including my six-month-old baby. Meanwhile, the ex-wife’s father, Phoon, 50, a hawker, said he is no longer in contact with his 28-year-old daughter. "That was when my daughter approached me about the loan sharks demanding repayment," he said, adding that they lodged a police report on March 12, but his daughter has since left home. He also called on loan sharks to act responsibly and deal directly with the borrower, and not harass family members.
