PETALING JAYA, Jan 22 — Police are searching for a man who was caught in the act of sexually violating a child in public over the weekend.
A 20-second clip of the video which appeared to have been recorded with a smartphone camera shows a man holding on tightly to a very young girl and kissing her face with music blaring in the background.
The footage also shows the man’s right hand crawling up from underneath the front of the girl’s pink dress as he touched her.
Both the man’s face as well as the girl’s could be seen clearly in the clip that was first uploaded by Durian Media on its Facebook page but has since been removed.
The accompanying post claimed the incident took place at a funfair in Taman Ria in Sungai Petani, Kedah at 11.30pm on Saturday.
Bukit Aman Corporate Communications chief Senior Assistant Commissioner Datin Asmawati Ahmad said police are aware of the video clip but added that no reports have been filed to date.
“Rest assured please give us some time to look into it. Our officers are working as we speak,” she said in a WhatsApp text message.
