LAX IGP: Cop who threatened to RAPE woman goes UNPUNISHED

LAX IGP: Cop who threatened to RAPE woman goes UNPUNISHED
The lawyer for the May Day rally participant who was allegedly threatened with rape by a policeman is disappointed that the suspect has been allowed to continue working at the same police station.
Michelle Yesudas, lawyer for Maisara Amira Mohamad Asmadi, said they were also not notified that police had identified the suspect.
“Obviously I am very disappointed with this. And we did not even know the policeman has now been identified,” she told Malaysiakini.
Maisara, 21, claims the cop threatened her with rape while she was detained at the Dang Wangi police station during the May Day anti-Goods and Services Tax (GST) rally.
She was the only female detained during the rally.
Yesterday, the Star Online reported Kuala Lumpur police chief Tajuddin Mohd Isa saying the police officer involved was still on duty at the same police station.
“He has not been transferred. We don’t see it as a necessity,” Tajuddin reportedly said.
Police 'not serious'
Yesudas however said apart from this, investigations by police into the case have been very professional.
Nevertheless, she doubted the safety of women detainees in police lock-ups, especially at the Dang Wangi police station, she added.
She quoted the case of a policeman being tried in court for allegedly raping a factory worker at a police station in Kuala Lumpur.
“The police are not taking this seriously […] they are sending the wrong message that women are not safe in police lockups.
Maisara lodged a police report on the alleged rape threat at the Petaling Jaya district police headquarters on May 6, the day after she was released from her four-day detention.
Twenty-two other youths were also detained during the weekend rally that drew a 20,000-strong crowd to protest the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST). - M'kini
