The incident happened at 8 pm on Tuesday night, January 2, when the woman, who is the suspect’s younger sister, heard her daughter’s cry coming from the man’s room.
Suspecting something amiss, she tried to barge into the room but it was locked from the inside.
The suspect finally opened the door and the little girl ran out of the room crying.
The man then ran out of the Jalan Tiong Hua house.
According to the Sibu district police chief Assistant Commissioner Zailanni Amit, “The victim was crying and claimed to experience pain on her private parts. Her mother was shocked when she saw traces of blood and lodged a police report at the Sibu Central police station.”
Police were later able to arrest the man at about 11 pm. He admitted to having taken the little girl into the room with the intention to rape her but “the girl started to cry for help.”
What a wicked thing to do!
