A BUSINESS development manager of a trading company was jailed
for two weeks on Wednesday for taking an upskirt video of a
woman.
Vernon Loh Chiang Meng, 40, admitted to insulting the modesty of
the 29-year-old woman at Lucky Chinatown's Italiaworld on March 12,
2010.
The court heard that Loh was interviewing the woman for a job
when he asked her to undergo a telephone interview with the
company's human resource personnel in Kuala Lumpur.
While she was on the phone, she felt uncomfortable as Loh was
seated rather close to her.
Halfway through the telephone interview, she turned around and
saw Loh placing a mobile phone underneath her skirt. She left and
reported to the police who arrested Loh.
He could have been jailed for up to one year and/or fined for
the offence.
