Cousins gang-raped during double date
IPOH: Two cousins thought they were in for a romantic night with their boyfriends.
However, the double date turned into a nightmare instead when the girls were gang-raped by nine men.
Gerik OCPD Supt Mahad Nor Abdullah said the boyfriends, in their 20s, joined in the rape after picking the girls up from their homes in Kati, Kuala Kangsar, last Wednesday.
The girls, aged 16 and 17, were brought to a picnic spot at Lata Lawin, about 20km from Gerik.
There, they found seven other men waiting at a gazebo at about 10pm.
“The seven turned out to be friends of the boyfriends.
“We believe this meant they had had planned to rape the girls all along,” Supt Mahad said yesterday.
Each boyfriend, he said, forced himself on the girls before passing her to his friends.
The victims’ ordeal dragged on to the next day before they were abandoned.
Several villagers found them and sent them home at 7am.
The girls, who are school dropouts, lodged police reports at the Kati police station on Friday.
Supt Mahad Nor said police had picked up three suspects so far, including the boyfriends, from their homes in Kuala Kangsar and Gerik.
“We are tracing the other six men, who are all in their 20s,” he said.
