Gang in Malaysia cut finger of a Mercedes owner to steal the car

In Malaysia one could chop off your fingers to get in your car. The car, a Mercedes S-class (worth around $75,000), was protected by a fingerprint recognition system. [...]So the attackers forced Mr. Kumaran to put his finger on the security panel to start the vehicle, then threw him in the back seat. But since the car needed the fingerprint everytime the car was turned off, they stripped Mr. Kumaran naked and left him by the side of the road, but not before they cut the end of his index finger with a machete.
