It was casual Saturday evening stroll in the mall for Kean and his girlfriend when they got onto the escalator beside Gardens Restaurant which leads up to the 3rd floor around 6.10pm
But nothing prepared them for the sight that greeted them when they reached the top of the escalator...
Kean Yong, who was standing beside his girfriend, realised that a 31-year-old man - knees bent 90º with his phone placed on it - was secretly capturing the bottom of his girlfriend's skirt!
Kean immediately confronted the man and asked him, “What are you doing?”
The pervert just smiled and said, “I will delete it, just let me go," and kept trying to run away from the scene. The 21-year-old alone couldn’t capture the offender so they screamed for help.
By this time, the screams had attracted enough attention, leading to passers-by coming to Kean's aid in bringing the guy to the mall's security office
The pervert would not stop struggling and kept saying, “I will delete those pictures, let me go, I will change for the better."
Turns out, this guy's phone’s photo album is full of upskirt videos and photographs!
“When we checked his handphone, we found a lot of upskirt photographs and videos of other women, including those of the interior design student.However, we did not find any previous cases involving the man,” said Brickfields OCPD Asst Comm Sharul Othman Mansor.

According to Kean, when they reached there, it was already about 8pm and most of the police officers looked tired. One merely commented, “Ini kes biasa, selalu ada kes macam ni.”.
When Kean tried to give statements explaining what has happened, the officer just brushed him off, saying "OK OK, ini nanti." and urged him to go home.
“Why? Don’t I have to identify the culprit’s face and see that he’s properly caught?” wondered Kean who was also curious to find out about the offender. But the policeman just said, “The culprit is on the way to the police station, we will settle this issue.”
The suspect, in remand until tomorrow, is being investigated under Section 509 of the Penal Code for insulting the modesty of a woman
If found guilty, the suspect will be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to five years or with fine or with both.
