AN 18-year-old student in Kuala Lumpur has claimed that she was
almost raped by the person who was supposed to protect her - a
security guard.
The Tunku Abdul Rahman College student said at a press conference
yesterday that she had been leaving the campus after an exam on
Saturday when someone hit her head, reported TheStar.
She said: 'When I turned around to defend myself, I saw that it was
the security guard.'
She claimed he hit her head with a rock at least 20times until she
collapsed.
He allegedly dragged her to a slope near the lecture hall and
started undressing her.
He tried to rape her, she claimed, but she managed to get
away.
Another security guard saw her and helped her clean her wounds,
then captured the suspect.
The girl, who has made a police report, said she was set upon at
the back entrance, which she had used because of its covered
walkway to the main road.
It had been raining at the time.
Said the girl: 'If I'd had an umbrella, I would have used the front
entrance and would have avoided him.
She said she went public about her experience because she did not
want it to happen to anyone else.
'Please carry pepper spray, an umbrella or something for
protection,' she added.
The police said they are investigating the case
