CHUKAI, July 5 -- A gardener was arrested by the police for allegedly trespassing into a girl's hostel of a school in Kemaman and outraging the modesty of one of the students there yesterday.
Kemaman district police chief Supt Hanyan Ramlan said the incident occurred at about 3 am, when the 32-year-old suspect, who was wearing a face mask, came out of hiding from under a bed and approached three students.
“Telling the students to keep quiet and that he had a knife, the suspect asked for their telephones and touched the thigh of one of them.
“He fled after one of the students screamed for help,” he said in a statement today.
In another development, he said police arrested 28 gamblers, including two Indonesians, at a cock-fighting session in Jalan Ibok, Ayer Jernih, here last Friday.
