Disabled cabby temptress on the prowl

A handicapped seductress is allegedly on the prowl, targeting and picking the pockets of taxi drivers.

KUALA LUMPUR: A handicapped “seductress” is on the prowl targeting mainly taxi drivers here who fall for her “disability” – only to end up getting their money skimmed.

Taxi driver Lim Lai Guan came across the handicapped temptress at around 1pm yesterday as he waited for passengers at the KL Sentral station.

The woman – a Chinese in her late 30s – was behaving suspiciously from the moment she stepped into his cab, Lim said.

“When she came (into my taxi), she said she wanted to go to Desa Pandan, even though the coupon she bought was for Pandan Jaya,” he told reporters at the Segambut DAP service centre.

He added that the woman, who apparently suffered from a leg condition, also insisted on sitting next to him.

“I usually don’t let people sit in front,” he said, adding that he took pity on her for her disability.

As soon as he was on his way to Desa Pandan, Lim said that the woman changed her mind, and asked to be taken to the Puduraya bus station.

When he refused, he claimed that the woman started to cry and lunged for him, hugging him in the process.

“I told her, ‘I’m married, please don’t do this’,” Lim said, adding that the woman refused to leave his car.

Because of her disability, he said that he did not have the heart to dump her by the roadside.

Police report threat

Lim then allegedly tried to calm the woman down, and asked her if she wanted some tea, but she refused.

He said that he then drove to the Lake Gardens, and asked the woman if she wanted to calm down.

While there, Lim told her that he was going to take a nap.

He said that the woman did not leave his taxi while he dozed off for about half an hour.

Lim did not say if the woman took any money from him while he slept.

When he woke up, he said that the woman demanded that he take her to Jalan Kuchai Lama. When he refused, the woman became angry.

“She got angry with me, saying, ‘You touched my breasts, and now you want to drop me off?’” Lim said, adding that the woman threatened to report him to the police.

Denying this, Lim said that he finally dropped her off at Salak Selatan a little later.

Operates in Bukit Bintang area

Bothered by the incident, the cab driver called Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng, and asked him for advice.

Lip Eng told him to lodge a police report, which he did at the Brickfields police station at about 2.30pm.

Lai Guan’s ordeal, however, did not stop there. The woman continued to harass him that night through SMSes, threatening him with lodging a police report.

When contacted, KL Sentral Taxi Association chairman Badrol Hisham said that the disabled temptress was infamously known among the KL’s taxi community.

“That is her modus operandi: she will seduce you, hug you, sleep on top of you and take your money quickly (while you’re distracted),” he told FMT.

Badrol said that the woman was most likely acting on her own, and was usually spotted around the Bukit Bintang area.

“Many of my friends and even I have been tricked by her,” he said, adding that the woman had been plying her trade for at least seven years.

Asked why taxi drivers had not lodged a police report against her before, Badrol said: “It’s very inconvenient to make a police report. We have to go and come back; it’s a waste of time.”

“She also doesn’t take a lot of money. Sometimes it’s RM30 or RM40, so we don’t make an issue.”

Badrol also said that taxi drivers did not have the means to properly blacklist her.

Meanwhile, Lip Eng advised taxi drivers caught in similar situations to immediately drive to the police station.
