The next time you are stopped by person who claimed they are plain clothes police, you are under no obligation to answer their question or follow their orders, lawyers told Malaysiakini today.

'Police who is not wearing his uniform does not have the authority to stop anyone.' lawyer and human rights activist Sivarasa Rasiah said.
Procedures to follow in the event you are stopped by uniformed police Officers while driving:
1. Stop the car and wind down your window.
2. If the police officers ask for your documents, request to see their IDs first.
3. If you are satisfied about their identity, ask them if you are being summoned, and for what offence.
4. Produre your identity card and driver's license and wait to collect your summon ticket.

In the event that the police officers ask you to follow them to the police station:
1. Ask if you are under arrest and for what offence.
2. If you are not under arrest, you have the right to leave.

In the event you are flagged down by persons you believe could be plain clothes police:
1. Do not stop because plain clothes police officers do not have the authority to stop you.
2. Drive to the nearest police station and lodge a report. (The same procedure applies to pedestrians)

In the event the police come to your house:
1. Do not let them in before checking their IDs.
2. If you are not satisfied, phone the nearest police station and confirm if they has been sent to your house.
3. You are under no obligation to allow them into the house if they don't have a search warrant.
4. Do not go with them if you are not under arrest.

In the event persons who claimed to be plain clothes police come to your house:
1. Do not let him in because they do not have the authority to do so.
2. Lodge a report at the nearest police station.


Sivarasa was commenting on the alleged gang-rape of an 18-year-old Uni student by four men claiming to be police officers on New Year's Eve. The girl said that her car was stopped in Taman Tun Dr Ismail in Kuala Lumpur and were asked by the men to open the car bonnet. She was then told that she has committed an offence and ordered to follow the men to a police station. The girl was driven in her car along the North-South expressway to Tapah-Cameron Highlands road before she was raped in an oil palm estate.

This incident, and many others, have sparked confusion over the procedures which motorists must follow when flagged down by the police. The most common problem is that most people take instructions without determining if the other person is really a cop,' lawyer Annie Santiago said.

However, if you are stopped by a uniformed policeman, then you are require to stop. But you need not get out of the car because you are not expected to do so, Santiago said. He other rule to follow is to provided your identity card only when you asked to do so. 'Even then, you should get his ID first to confirm if he is a cop. There is no harm in calling the revelant police station to verify if he is supposed to be on duty that day,' Sivarasa said.

Both lawyers said that motorists should never follow an officer to the police station unless is under arrest. 'If you are not sure, and your instincts tell you that something is wrong, then drive off to the nearest police station and lodge a report,' Sivarasa said.

In response to the alleged gang-rape of the 18-year-old, Women's Aid Organisation executive-secretary Ivy Josiah called on the police to launch an education program to teach the public about their rights to prevent them from being victimised by bogus police officers.

IPOH: Doctored photographs of two Perak DAP assemblymen allegedly performing sexual acts are being distributed via e-mail.

Tebing Tinggi assemblyman Ong Boon Piow, speaking at a press conference yesterday after lodging a police report on Wednesday, said: “I was shocked when I opened my e-mail to see a nude photo of myself with a woman.”

Ong said the e-mail he received was dated Sept 9 and was sent to him at 8.23pm by a person named Lee BT.

“I believe the doctored photograph is a dirty tactic used to assassinate my character,” he said.

He said he had given the picture and details of the sender to the police.

Canning assemblyman Wong Kah Woh, who was also present at the press conference, said doctored photographs and a video clip showing him in an alleged sex romp with a woman was also being circulated via e-mail.

“I first came to know of the pictures in June but I chose to ignore them,” he said, adding that he did not lodge a police report.

“The culprit is just insulting the intelligence of the people by doctoring our photographs and circulating them,” he said.

Wong believed the photographs of him and Ong were downloaded from a website of a DAP leader who posted pictures of Perak DAP leaders attending various events here.

In June last year, doctored photographs of Batu Gajah MP Fong Po Kuan, Beruas MP and Sitiawan assemblyman Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham, Taiping MP and Pantai Remis assemblyman Nga Kor Ming and former Menglembu assemblyman Keong Meng Sing were also circulated via e-mail.

A police report was lodged and the Perak DAP had offered RM5,000 to those with information on the culprit who doctored their photographs.

KUALA KUBU BARU: A man has been arrested in connection with the discovery of the body of a woman in a rubbish pile here last Friday.

Sources revealed that the man, in his 30s, has been remanded for seven days since Wednesday to assist in investigations. Police will conduct a DNA test on the body against that of two families who had come forward to identify her.

“Both families were not able to identify the body because it was badly burnt, but agreed to a DNA test,” the sources said.

It is learnt that doctors who conducted the post-mortem estimated the victim’s age at between 30 and 40 years old.

Passers-by in a secluded area in Kampung Koskan, Serendah, near here, stumbled upon the burning body of the woman at 8.45am on Friday. No identification documents were found on her.

Police did not rule out the possibility that the woman could have been killed elsewhere. Yesterday, Hulu Selangor OCPD Supt Norel Azmi Yahya Affendi said the woman was believed to have been suffocated before she was set on fire.

GEORGE TOWN: Five men gang-raped an Indonesian maid after they used chloroform to overpower her in Bukit Dumbar here.

OCPD Azam Abd Hamid said the maid, in her early 20s, was walking along the road on Monday when she was bundled into a car and taken to an unknown place.

“When she woke up a few hours later, she found five masked men standing over her naked body. She was then told to dress up. One of them drove her back to the place where she was abducted.

“The victim subsequently made a report at the Jelutong police station. She was then sent to the Penang Hospital where an examination confirmed that she was raped,” he said yesterday.

In another case, two men were arrested in connection with a RM250,000 goldsmith robbery in Campbell Street on Aug 13.

ACP Azam said the two were nabbed in Kuala Lumpur and handed over to the district police on Tuesday.

“We are still looking for their two accomplices who have been identified. The loot has yet to be recovered,” he said.

In another incident, more than 20 people have been cheated by a woman of about RM100,000 in a low-cost housing scam in Balik Pulau district.

The woman, in her 30s, claimed to be the special assistant of an assemblyman and collected between RM5,000 and RM6,000 from each person as downpayment for the low-cost flat units in Sungai Nibong late last month.

The victims were earlier told that a few units had been put aside for them but they needed to come up with some downpayment.

They realised they had been cheated after finding out that the units had all been taken up.

Sources said police reports were lodged at the Bayan Lepas police station after repeated calls to the woman’s handphone went unanswered.

The sources said the case was being investigated as cheating under Section 420 of the Penal Code.

Police believe more people could have been cheated but have yet to lodge reports.

MIRI: A young man died after he was beaten up and impaled with a sharp weapon during a gangster-style attack by a group of youths in the city here.

The deceased, believed to be in his late 20s, sustained a gaping hole in his chest after he was believed to have been set upon by the gangsters in two vehicles at about 4am yesterday.

The victim, who was with a group of friends were in two cars when they were attacked near the city’s main highway.

According to a police investigator, eyewitness accounts said that before the fatal attack, four vehicles were involved in a high-speed chase along the highway.

“Two cars were seen speeding and tailing two other cars in front of them. The four vehicles came to a stop after the two cars (giving chase) forced the two in front to the side of the road,” he said.

“A group of youths alighted from the two cars. Armed with what looked like steel weapons, they were shouting and screaming at each other and a fight ensued.

“Before long, the victim was seen slumped on his back. The assailants sped off before the police arrived,” he said.

A source said the police were investigating the possibility that the fatal attack might have been sparked by an earlier confrontation between the occupants of the four cars.

The police were also investigating the possibility that they had gathered somewhere else before the car-chase, possibly a bar or an entertainment centre.

Miri police chief Asst Comm Jamaluddin Ibrahim appealed to eyewitnesses to contact the nearest police station.

KOTA KINABALU: A distance learning programme has been specially created to help a 22-year-old rape victim continue with her university education at University Malaysia Sabah.

UMS vice-chancellor Prof Datuk Dr Kamaruzaman Ampon said the student who was abducted, attacked and raped outside the campus here in April can continue her studies through the programme from her home in Sarawak.

“We tried to help her register elsewhere but she wants to continue with us. She is a strong girl,” he said, adding that the second year student had already registered for the programme to study from home.

Following the abduction, assault and rape by two men near a supermarket close to the UMS campus here, the girl has since returned to her hometown to be with her family.

Kamarulzaman said he was informed that the girl had taken time off with her family and had gone to Australia.

“I have been made to understand that she has since recovered from physical wounds,” he said, explaining that anyone in her situation would take a long time to overcome the mental and emotional scars from such an incident.

Her two local assailants were sentenced to nearly 35 years’ jail for multiple charges involving rape, assault and car thefts after they pleaded guilty following their arrests within 24 hours after the April 15 rape case.

Kamaruzaman said that since the incident, the university had been impressing on the students to pay more attention on their personal safety, especially when outside the campus.

KEMAMAN: A Form Four student from Felda Neram Dua here alleged that she was a sex slave for her father and brother for the past two years.

She told the police that the rape had been taking place since she was 14.

Police detained the 47-year-old father and brother shortly after the report was lodged.

What is Sexual Harassment?

Sexual Harassment is any unwanted conduct of sexual nature having the effect of verbal, non-verbal, visual, psychological of physical harassment. - Code of Practice On The Prevention and Eradication of Sexual Harassment In The Workplace – Ministry of Human Resources, 1999

Sexual harassment is any deliberate verbal comments, gestures or behaviour of a sexual nature that is unwanted, unwelcomed and unsolicited. It can hurt a woman emotionally, physically and socially. The majority of people who are sexually harassed are women.

Sexual harassment can occur anywhere – for instance on the street, in the bus or taxi, in the cinema or at the workplace. It can be a combination of physical, verbal, visual or psychological harassment.

Sexual harassment can include:

Sexual harassment is a violation of a person's rights and is not a small matter.

What People Say About Sexual Harassment

If a woman dresses or behaves in a sexy way, she is asking to be sexually harassed. When a businessman gets robbed, we do not blame him for being well dressed. We blame the robber. Yet when a woman is sexually harassed, we blame her for the way she looks! There is no excuse for harassment regardless of how the woman looks. Anyone can control their sexual feelings and are entirely responsible for their own actions.

It is a small matter and a bit of fun and flirting; anyway, women enjoy it even if they pretend not to!

Women who are harassed definitely do not agree with this! Sexual harassment is not the same as flirting. Sexual harassment is about being disrespectful! If a person is interested in another person, they show it in a respectful way – not by sexually harassing the person.

Only young women get harassed

Sexual harassment happens to all women at some time in their lives, regardless of their age, physical appearance or marital status. Sexual harassment is about the abuse of power – those who feel and are more powerful, harass and intimidate those who are not.

Women should just ignore sexual harassment

Many are forced to ignore it, but often feel bad about it. In the workplace especially, research shows that if sexual harassment is ignored, most of the time, it continues or gets worse!

What Is The Rationale?

Sexual harassment problem arises out of general workplace relationships involving personal behaviour of people within the enterprise. - Code of Practice On The Prevention and Eradication of Sexual Harassment In The Workplace – Ministry of Human Resources, 1999

What Are The Effects of Sexual Harassment?

Sexual Harassment affects you:

Stay alert at all times and be aware of your surroundings. Send out the message that you are confident and know where you are going. Trust your instincts. Keep the telephone numbers of the police stations near where you live and work.



On Foot
- Stick to well-traveled streets. Avoid shortcuts through wooded areas, parking lots or alleys.
- Don't flash large amounts of cash or other "inviting" items like expensive jewelry or watches.
- Carry a purse/bag close to your body; don't dangle it by the strap. Put a wallet in an inside coat or front pants pocket, not a back pocket.
-Try to use automated teller machines (ATM) in the daytime. Have your card in hand and don't approach the machine if you're uneasy about people nearby.
-Don't wear shoes or clothing that restrict your movement.
-Have your keys in hand before you reach your car or house.
- If you think someone is following you, switch direction or cross the street. Walk toward an open store, restaurant or lighted house. If you're afraid, yell for help.
- If you have to work late, make sure there are others in the building, and ask someone - a colleague or security guard - to walk you to your car or transit stop.


In your Car
- Keep your car in good running condition. Make sure there's enough gas to get to where you're going and back.
- Always roll up the windows and lock car doors, even if you're coming right back. Check inside and around your car before getting in.
- Avoid parking in isolated areas. Be especially alert in underground parking lots.
- If you think someone is following you, don't head home. Drive to the nearest police or fire station, gas station or other business areas to get help.
- Don't pick up hitchhikers.



In a bus or train
- Use well-lighted, busy stops.
- Stay alert! Don't doze or daydream.
- Watch who gets off with you. If you feel uneasy, walk directly to a place where there are people.
- If someone harasses you, don't be embarrassed. Shout out "Leave me alone!" If that doesn't work, hit the emergency stop device.

If you get robbed

- Don't resist. Give up your belongings, not your life.

- Try to remember the attacker's face or registration plate number (if any). Report the crime to the police. Describe the attacker accurately. Your actions can help prevent others from becoming victims.

PETALING JAYA: Police have a “strong case” against a cop who allegedly raped a 17-year-old girl in a police station in Subang Jaya on June 18.

State police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar said the investigation report had been sent to the Deputy Public Prosecutor and Bukit Aman for further action.

“Based on our investigations, we have a strong case to charge the officer. He has been suspended since the date of arrest and would also be facing disciplinary action soon,” he said.

Khalid added that police were waiting for the victim's medical report from the hospital .

On June 18, the girl was with her boyfriend when the policeman stopped their motorcycle at 5am.

After finding that the boyfriend did not have a licence, the policeman instructed them to go to the station where they were questioned separately.

The girl from Shah Alam was allegedly forced to undress and was threatened by the policeman that if she did not comply with his demands, he would send her boyfriend to jail.

She claimed she was forced to perform oral sex on the policeman before she was raped in the station.

After 30 minutes, the couple was released but she did not reveal the incident to her boyfriend or family members until several days later.
