KUALA LUMPUR: A policeman was detained for allegedly forcing a 17-year-old girl to perform oral sex and raping her in a police station in Selangor recently. It was learnt that the policeman, in his 20s, had stopped the girl and her boyfriend, who were riding a motorcycle, while making his rounds about 5am on June 18.

Upon questioning, the policeman, who was with a colleague, discovered that the girl's boyfriend did not possess a licence and the couple was taken to a police station for further questioning.

Sources said the couple was later interrogated separately in different rooms.

While being interrogated, the girl was allegedly forced to undress and threatened.

"The policeman allegedly threatened to throw her boyfriend in jail for 20 years if she refused to obey his instructions," said a source.

Fearing for her boyfriend's safety, the girl agreed to the policeman's demand and performed oral sex on him and was also raped.

After about 30 minutes, the couple was released and she did not reveal the incident to either her boyfriend or family members.

However, two days later, the girl decided to inform her cousin about what happened in the police station.

The cousin later informed the girl's parents.

On Sunday, the girl, accompanied by her family members, lodged a police report at the Putra Heights police station in Subang Jaya.

When contacted, Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar confirmed the report.

He however refused to elaborate, saying that the case was still under investigation.

Honestly where is the sanctity and the morality of the police officers these days? They suppose to be the trusted ones, the ones that we can trust, believe and rely on to safeguard our children and out community. But is this the result? Truth be told I am sure that the girl's family will be utterly disappointed to learn that the people that they expect to protect their child have raped her. I don't know how else to express my disbelieved and disappointment. Yes I get it police officers are human being and they can make mistakes but these kinds of immoral behaviour should not be tolerated. That officer should be punished as maximum as the law will allow it.

Imagine if you are the father of the girl, you have trusted the police officers to protect your beloved daughter but in return all you get is your daughters life ruined by some young punk and perverted officer. Seriously, I urged everyone who reads this to take a minuted and understand the seriousness of this issue. I have friends who have been raped victims and it seriously destroys your life. The whole thing will mess with your head and causes alot of mental stress. We need to think about our community and try to investigate what is the source of this incident. Why a police officer is giving a bad name to his own people? At one point in history police officers are well respected but now they are associated with so many crimes and they have lost the sanctity and merits of being a police officer.
