KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 19 — The management of Sunway Lagoon today said it has looked into the case of Filipino beauty queen, Ruffa Gutierrez, and her two teenaged daughters being allegedly harassed by a group of men inside the theme park.

The management said unruly behaviour in the family-oriented attraction will not be tolerated, and will be dealt with accordingly.

"Sunway Lagoon will provide updates to relevant parties and assist in any media inquiries on this matter,” the theme park operator said in a statement.

In a report by Manila’s ABS-CBN News, Gutierrez claimed that the "old men” had catcalled the group, made lewd gestures and snapped photographs of her daughters Lorin Gabriella, 15, and Venice Bektas, 14, in an incident that left them feeling uncomfortable and reduced them to tears.

She further alleged that the men became more aggressive when her friends warned them to stop harassing the family.
