KAMPAR: A 23-year-old woman claimed that she was molested by a man, said to be a policeman, at his home in Taman Sentosa here on Friday.
District police chief Superintendent Mohamad Nazri Daud said the woman, who works as a clerk, said she got to know the man, who identified himself as a policeman, through Facebook.
After a week of getting to know each other, she finally agreed to meet him at a workshop in Taman Bandar Baru here about 10.30pm.
At the meeting, the man then invited her to his home, saying that he wanted to introduce her to his children.
He then drove her to his house.
"Upon entering the house, the woman felt uneasy and asked the man to send her home instead. She claimed the man proceeded to grab her as well as forcibly kissing and groping her.
"He only stopped when the woman threatened to scream. The man then sent the woman back to her workplace. Shaken by the incident, she decided to lodge a police report," he said.
Nazri said police are trying to establish whether the man is indeed a policeman stationed at the district police headquarters, as claimed.
"Investigating officers had asked the woman to show them the house where the alleged incident took place.
"However, when they went there, the house was dark and no one was home," he said.
