| JOHOR BARU - A WEEKEND family outing turned disastrous after a 17-year-old girl was raped and robbed.
The victim, along with her parents and two siblings, had gone to the Gunung Pulai waterfalls for a picnic at about 2.30pm on Saturday. While the rest of her family were swimming, she had gone off to change her clothes when three men in their 20s suddenly appeared, grabbed her from behind and dragged her to nearby bushes. One of the suspects raped her while two others stole her belongings. The victim's screams prompted her family to come to her aid. They managed to detain two suspects, while the one who raped her escaped. The family members have since handed over the suspects to the police and made a police report. The victim was sent to Kulai Hospital for a medical examination. Kulai Jaya OCPD Supt Zulkefly Yahya confirmed the case and said police had launched a manhunt for the escaped suspect. - The Star/ANN. | |
