State criminal investigation department chief Lim Meng Seah said the suspect was arrested as soon as the bus from Kelantan arrived at the Melaka Sentral terminus here at 10.30am today.
State executive councillor Akmal Saleh said he had received a message asking for help in relation to an incident of sexual harassment.
“This morning at dawn, I received a message from a friend on Facebook regarding an incident that happened to an acquaintance while returning to Melaka. This young victim was too afraid to call out for help and could only cry. Then I and some friends waited in Melaka to assist this girl,” he said.
Lim said the victim is enrolled in a teacher training college in the state, Bernama reported.
She claimed she was molested by the suspect when the bus stopped for a break at Ajil, Hulu Terengganu, at about 4am.
“Based on the information, police detained the driver, who is from Kota Tinggi, Johor, as soon as the express bus arrived at Melaka Sentral,” Lim said.
Akmal urged women not to remain silent and to lodge a report immediately if they were molested, especially when using public transport. He said the authorities took the issue of outrage of modesty seriously. - FMT
