10-year-old abducted from school and molested
A 10-YEAR-OLD girl almost fell victim to rape after she was abducted by a stranger at her school gate.
Harian Metro said the student went through an hour of hell as the man, who was in his 30s, molested her in the bushes located about 2km from the school in Kuala Lumpur at 9am on Tuesday.
Police sources said the girl was saved after the man ran off when he heard voices of passers-by. Earlier, the girl had left her classroom to go to the washroom. On her way there, she was greeted by the man at the school gate.
Suddenly, the man grabbed her and tied her up. He placed her on his motorcycle before speeding off. When they got to the bushes, she cried in fear and begged for mercy as the suspect began to molest her, a police source said.
The girl walked back to her school and her parents later lodged a report at the Setapak police station.
Kuala Lumpur Criminal and Intelligence Operations chief Khairi Rasa confirmed receiving the report and said a search had been launched for the suspect.

Students turn back alley into sex den
MALACCA - A GROUP of delinquent secondary school students have turned the back alley of a commercial centre in Jalan Gajah Berang into a pre-dawn 'sin and sex' paradise.
The students converge at the area as early as 5.30am before going 'wild' some explicitly engaging in sexual acts which traders in the area claim to have witnessed almost daily since the beginning of the year. Many were spotted smoking before the school session started at 7.40am.
'These students have gone wild. We have caught them kissing at back lanes. They have no shame even if someone watches them. They caress, kiss and even indulge in oral sex in the semi-lit alleys,' said a trader, 45, who requested anonymity.
The Star visited the area at 5.30am and discovered a teenage girl in school uniform fondling and kissing her peer at the back lane of a fast food outlet. At another part of the alley, 10 students including schoolgirls were smoking even after they were aware of the media's presence in the area.
The principal of one of the schools near the alley encouraged the media to highlight the students' behaviour in the hope that police would intensify patrols in the area.
State police chief Datuk Chuah Ghee Lye said police would dispatch school liaison officers to all three schools to meet with the principals. 'We will investigate the traders' claims and step up our patrols. We have to nip this in the bud,' he said.

Taiwan cracks down on teen prostitution ring
TAIPEI - TWO 15-year-old boys were arrested in northern Taiwan for allegedly pimping at least a dozen girls aged as young as 12, police said on Wednesday.
The boys allegedly recruited the girls via the Internet and arranged for them to work in tea houses and hotels in New Taipei City for about NT$2,000 (S$86.50) a time, police said.
'The girls wanted to buy designer products and they wanted to enjoy life. They used various excuses to hide this from their parents, and some parents even covered for them when they missed school,' said a police spokesman.
The Liberty Times newspaper named the boys Taiwan's youngest ever pimps, saying they lived in an apartment with three of the girls.
'We didn't steal, we didn't rob. We were merely helping girls in trouble,' one of them said, according to the paper. Television footage showed some girls sporting expensive designer bags and giggling while they were taken to a police station on Tuesday.
The boys face a maximum seven-year jail term for pimping. If convicted, they are likely to be placed in a juvenile correctional facility. The girls will be sent to a special school for teenagers forced into sex work, or they will be put into foster care if necessary, according to the police.

AN 18-year-old girl has lodged a police report a month after she was raped, reported Harian Metro.
The girl claimed that she was hypnotised by a man in his 20s at their first meeting during lunch on a working day.

'The victim, who suddenly realised what had happened, called the man but he turned off his phone.
'She made her police report on the matter on Monday in Pandan Indah police station,' the police source added. Ampang Jaya police chief Amiruddin Jamaluddin confirmed receiving the report and that they are investigating. -- THE STAR/ANN

Molester gets 21 months jail, caning
TWO days after molesting his teenage sister-in-law, a man went on to touch his eight-year-old stepdaughter.
The 39-year-old man earlier pleaded guilty to two counts of outrage of modesty and one charge of drug consumption. Another molestation charge was consiered during his sentencing.
A district court heard that the accused's 14-year-old sister-in-law was in the living room watching television and talking on the phone when he came and stroked her thigh. He also kissed her on the cheek.
Two days later, he molested his young stepdaughter, who was watching television at the time.
Investigation showed that he had also touched the girl improperly on a few previous occasions.
District Judge Jasbendar Kaur agreed with the prosecution that his conduct was reprehensible. She jailed the cleaner seven years and six strokes for taking morphine in February, and a total of 21 months and three strokes on the two molestation charges. All the sentences are consecutive.
