Power thief nabbed for bribery
KUALA LUMPUR: A 60-year-old man was arrested yesterday for offering RM30,000 to a senior Tenaga Nasional Berhad officer for not taking action against him for stealing electricity supply.
The man, who owns a company based in Johor, was arrested at 1pm at a hotel in Petaling Jaya yesterday.Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) deputy chief commissioner Datuk Mohd Shukri Abdull believed the suspect had been stealing electricity over a long period of time."We believe that the value of the stolen electricity is a substantial amount. "Although we are still trying to determine how long he has been doing this, the value of electricity stolen shows that he must have been doing it for some time," he told the New Straits Times.The man has been stealing electricity at his business premises, Shukri added.
"His company has a factory in Johor Baru, which is where he has been carrying on his activities. "The TNB officer declined the bribe and that was when the suspect was arrested."The case is being investigated under section 17(b) of the MACC Act 2009 which deals with offering bribes.At the "Let's Make a Change, Let's Fight Corruption" campaign on Monday, MACC chief commissioner Datuk Abu Kassim Mohamed said the commission was now giving equal focus to bribe givers in its fight against corruption.
From 2000 until last year, 866 people were arrested for attempting to bribe civil servants and 90 per cent of them were from enforcement agencies.Since January, 16 have been brought to court or were waiting to be arrested.Under Section 17(b), those giving bribes can be jailed up to 20 years and fined not less than five times the bribe or RM10,000, whichever is higher.

Girl raped after being sprayed with liquid
A 19-YEAR-OLD girl was raped by a man who sprayed her with a liquid, causing her to fall off her motorcycle and break her arm, reported Harian Metro.
In the 1.45am incident on Monday, the teenager was riding pillion on the motorcycle driven by her friend near Jalan Pasir Pedamar in Teluk Intan when another motorcyclist drew up beside them, brandishing a spray can. The man sprayed them with liquid from the can, causing the friend to lose control of the motorcycle.
The girl, who was on her way home after helping her mother at her coffeeshop, broke her left arm in the accident, which also saw her friend suffering injuries to the body and leg.
Hilir Perak OCPD Supt Mohd Zaki Harun said the man then stopped near the girl but instead of helping her, began to molest her. He also threatened to hurt her with his helmet if she tried to fight back.
“Ignoring her cries of pain, the man then took her to a nearby public toilet and raped her,” he said. The girl walked home after the incident.

Teen held over rape attempt
GEORGE TOWN: A 15-year-old boy was caught and beaten up by a security guard after he and an accomplice tried to rape a 28-year-old woman in a public toilet at the Komtar bus terminal here.
The woman, who works with an express bus company, had earlier gone to the first-floor toilet at around 9.15pm on Saturday when the two rushed in and threatened her with a knife. It is learnt that after demanding for her belongings to be handed over, they started fondling her private parts and threatened to kill her if she shouted for help.
However, when the woman spotted a male cleaner enter the toilet, she screamed, causing the duo to run off. A security guard, who waited at the exit after hearing the screams, managed to nab one of them.
Zainol Mat Saad said he hid behind an escalator to wait for the duo to run past him as it was near where the only exit was. “I managed to grab the boy but his accomplice ran off with the woman’s handbag,” said Zainol, who works with the same company as the woman, adding that the victim lost a handphone, necklace and RM50.
He said the boys might have been working in cahoots with another woman as the victim had told him that she only used the toilet when she saw the other woman enter it first. “But shortly after the woman left, the boys rushed in and closed the door,” he said. The victim lodged a report at the Patani Road police station.
George Town OCPD Asst Comm Gan Kong Meng said the boy, who was sent to the Penang Hospital for treatment, had been placed under remand for four days. “We are looking for a man and a woman to facilitate investigations,” he added. Komtar assemblyman Ng Wei Aik said he would ask the Penang Development Corporation to fix panic buttons at the toilets in Komtar. “We have installed 50 closed-circuit television cameras in the building but it is impossible to fix them near the toilets,” he said.
Chief executive officer to PDC Setia Urus, which manages Komtar, Sabarul Aswadi Abdul Jalil said he would check if any of the CCTV had captured images of the duo.
