Seven years ago, an accounts manager complained about being molested
by 11 police personnel but heard no more about investigations.
The accounts mananger had alleged that she was stopped
at a police road-block in Taman Connaught, Kuala Lumpur, on suspicion
of drink driving and following a discussion, she told the police
personnel to return her driving licence and to issue a ticket.
When the police personnel allegedly refused and demanded a bribe of RM3,000, she drove towards the Batu 9 police station in Cheras, but said a brown Proton Wira gave chase and forced her to turn into the premises of the General Operations Force building.

When Bee Fong alighted from her car, 11 police personnel approached her and allegedly began touching her body (demonstrated in photo).
Today, at about midnight, however, the police finally acted and detained her.
Relating her ordeal today, Wong Bee Fong, 39, said four police personnel
including a female officer came knocking at her door at just about
midnight.
Ben Fong further said, “They showed a warrant briefly, which I could not see clearly, and
acted very rough. They threatened to break my padlock and door and tried
to shame me in front of my neighbours. I told them not to make so much noise as my neighbours have children
and babies. Furthermore, they have to go to work in the morning. However, they kept on knocking on my door asking me to produce my
identity card. I was scared because I was alone at that time and called my employer.”
Bee Fong said after her boss arrived, they left for the police station together, where she was immediately shown to the lock-up but luckily, she added, she was treated well at the police station while her boss tried to secure her release.
She said his morning, the police handcuffed her and took her to the Kajang Magistrate's Court in Putrajaya, where she was charged for obstructing L/Cpl Mohd Faudzi Abdul
Aziz at the General Operations Force headquarters in Batu 9, Cheras,
about 2.30am on Aug 13, 2004.
The charge, under Section 186 of the Penal Code, carries a penalty of two years' jail or fine of RM10,000, or both.
Bee Fong was granted bail of RM2,000, which was posted by her employer, according to her lawyer Keppy Wong (right) who had told Malaysiakini earlier today, "What is the country turning into? They could have informed her of
the charge instead of arresting her in the middle of the night. It is bad enough that she was molested. To subject her to time in a lock-up is traumatising."
