(Reuters) - Lazio winger Loum Tchaouna was substituted after being racially abused by fans during Thursday's 2-0 win at Dutch club Twente in the Europa League, the Italian club's coach Marco Baroni said.

Pahang police chief Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman said the 69-year-old man first expressed interest in the investment advertised on Facebook in July.

He explained that the victim was provided with a link to download the investment platform, while the suspect offered training via WhatsApp, convincing the senior citizen that he could obtain returns up to three times the invested sum. "As a result, the victim transferred over RM478,000 from his savings through 33 transactions to four accounts provided by the suspect, from Sept 10 until this Tuesday,” Yahaya said in a statement on Friday .

The man became suspicious when he could not withdraw his investment and subsequently filed a report at the Kuantan District police headquarters on Thursday. The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating. Meanwhile, Yahaya cautioned the public to be wary of online investment schemes promising high returns. He also advised individuals to verify account numbers through https://semakmule.rmp.gov.my before making any transactions. - Bernama1MDB trial: Jho Low and Riza were good friends who went on ski trips, court told
