Bogus cop rapes 11-year-old

SHAH ALAM: Her innocence and trusting nature cased her to endure an hour of hell at the hands of a sex predator.

The 11-year-old schoolgirl believed the man when he said he was a policeman. He wanted directions and the girl readily got into his car to show him where a shop was located.

The culprit, however, drove her to a car park in Sungai Buloh, tied her up with her head scarf, taped her mouth and raped her in the car.

When he was finished, he threw her out of the car before driving away.

The bleeding, traumatised girl was spotted by a passer-by who contacted her uncle after getting the telephone number from her.

The Year Five student is now recuperating at the University Malaya Medical Centre. The girl, who is the younger of two siblings, is also being counselled.

The incident occurred about 11.30am on Monday at a flat in Jinjang where the victim had just left her home for school.

She was approached on the ground floor by a man in his 20s who identified himself as a policeman.

Selangor deputy CID chief ACP Chee Cheng Wan confirmed the incident and advised parents to educate their children, especially those below the age of 12, on the dangers of being too trusting of strangers.

"The are rapists on the prowl and children should be supervised at all times. If this cannot be done, then parents must ensure than they move around in groups.

"They should be taught to be wary of strangers, especially those who claim to be lost or need directions."

Che also advised parents to tell their children that policemen cannot order children to follow them.

"This is not normal procedure.

"Policemen do not usually approach children, unless the latter approaches them."
