IPOH: Perak executive council member Paul Yong Choo Kiong has been charged with allegedly raping his Indonesian maid at the Sessions Court here Friday (Aug 23).

Yong, who is Tronoh assemblyman, pleaded not guilty when the charges were read out under Section 376 of the Penal Code.

"I understood and denied any wrongdoings," he said before Sessions Court judge Norashima Khalid.

Yong, 49, was represented by lawyers, Malim Nawar assemblyman Leong Cheok Keng, Jelutong MP RSN Rayer, Bukit Gelugor MP Ramkarpal Singh and Farhan Sapian.

According to the charge sheet, Yong had allegedly committed the act in a room at the top floor of his house in Meru Desa Park on July 7, between 8.15pm and 9.15pm.

On July 8, a 23-year-old maid lodged a police report, alleging that she was raped by Yong – her employer – at his house in Meru.

Yong, who is in charge of the state Housing, Local Government, Public Transport, Non-Islamic and Village Affairs Committee, has denied any wrongdoing.

Separately, Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu had urged Yong to go on leave until his alleged rape trial is completed.- Star
