Now, after almost a month, the man was arrested and sentenced to three years in jail by the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate's Court. According to a report in The Star, the culprit who was identified as Amran Shah Abu Samah, aged 41, pleaded guilty to committing the indecent act onboard the LRT in front of the 26-year-old woman.
While admitting to the Magistrate's Court that he was sorry and regretted his actions, Amran Shah, who has 2 kids and works as a waiter, however, said the woman was partly to blame because she was dressed in "sexy clothes" on the night of the incident
While handing down the sentence, Magistrate Ashraf Rezal Abdul Manan observed that Amran not only failed to show remorse but was also focused on blaming the victim for his own crime
