Policewoman accuses senior cop of sexual abuse

KANGAR: A 28-year-old woman probationary police inspector has lodged a report against a senior officer, claiming he forced her to perform oral sex on him.

Sources said the officer met up with his subordinate for dinner at a restaurant at about 8pm on Feb 25, but it was closed.

She then got into his car and the suspect took her to a deserted spot where he allegedly took advantage of her.

She said she did not fight back as she was afraid for her safety.

After that, he sent her back to her car and she drove straight to the Arau police station to lodge a report.

She claimed that the suspect had earlier threatened to make her work difficult if she did not go out with him.

The sources added that the victim claimed that prior to the incident, the suspect had groped her buttocks when they were in his office late last year.

On the same day, the suspect also lodged a report claiming that the incident never happened and that it was an attempt to spoil his good name.

He alleged that the victim was unhappy because he had criticised her for not doing her job properly and she could have been influenced by “outsiders” to lodge the report after he cleared the district of illegal gambling activities.

Police are investigating the woman’s report.

It is learnt that the senior officer has been transferred out of the district and put on leave.
