IPOH: A 24-year-old woman was scolded and hit on her forehead by a man during a road rage incident on Jalan Cameron Highlands-Tapah near the Lata Iskandar waterfall.
Perak police chief Comm Datuk Seri Mohd Yusri Hassan Basri said the 29-year-old man also threatened the woman and her 17-year-old brother during the incident.
Comm Mohd Yusri said the incident occurred on Monday (June 5) at about 5.30pm when the woman and her brother were on their way down from Cameron Highlands to Tapah.
"During the journey, the woman had tried to overtake a gray car but could not do so. The driver of the gray car then made some obscene gesture," he said in a statement on Tuesday (June 6).
He said that the driver – who is a factory supervisor - then got out of his vehicle and knocked on the windshield of the woman' car.
"When she wound down the car window, the suspect scolded her and hit her forehead while uttering threatening words," he added.
A video of the incident was also found on one Saleha Fayyad's Facebook page on Tuesday.
Comm Mohd Yusri said a police report was lodged by the woman at the Saujana Utama Sungai Buloh police station in Selangor on Tuesday at about 10am.
"Checks on the registration number of the car driven by the man found that it was registered under the name of a woman whose address was in Tanjong Karang, Selangor.
"The police managed to locate the man in Serdang, Selangor," he said.
"The man will be taken to the Tapah district police station to facilitate investigation under Section 323/506/509 of the Penal Code," he added. - Star
