Question 17

Explanation

Let's use Disjunctive Syllogism logic to solve this case. Imagine the event in Kampung Bambu as a binary choice where one of them must happen:

Where:

• $P$: Robbery occurred.
• $Q$: Theft occurred.
• $\lor$: Means "or" (one must be true).

The second premise provides a key fact: Robbery never occurred ($\sim P$).

Since the first option ($P$) has been annulled or declared false, logic dictates that the only remaining possibility for the initial statement to remain true is that the second option ($Q$) must have occurred.

Therefore, the inevitable conclusion is: Last Sunday, a crime in the form of theft just occurred in Kampung Bambu.
