Woman Bravely Confronts Flasher in Dengkil, Police Say the Man Has Been Caught

In a viral video originally shared on Facebook, the woman known as Nur Iman Safiyyah, revealed the incident happened at Savanna Southville, Dengkil on the evening of 13th January when she was returning home from class.

According to her, this wasn't the first time she had encountered the same man. Previously, she had met him on 9th December at night.

“He would sit in his red Iriz car and start calling ‘awak,awak’ to women while flashing his privates. When I met him the first time, I was so scared so I ran away,” she wrote.

"I think he targets women who are walking alone especially students. Stay safe everyone. I will file a report soon," she added.

PDRM has arrested the man

The Sun reported that at about 12:15 am on 14th January, the police have captured the man in the area of Labohan Dagang, Sepang.

The man, 32, was a building maintenance employee and the police revealed that preliminary checks indicated that he had no prior criminal records.
