KUALA LUMPUR – A female civil servant seen in a viral video clip insulting two policemen on Thursday was arrested early this morning.

Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan said that the 35-year-old local woman was arrested by the D9 branch of the Gombak district police headquarters’ criminal investigation division, at the police HQ at 1.20am in connection with two investigation papers opened against her.

He said that the woman was summoned to the Gombak police HQ for the first time yesterday regarding an incident involving two policemen at Taman Sri Gombak, Batu Caves, on Thursday. The suspect was detained after reappearing at the police HQ today.

“Police also seized a mobile phone to assist in the investigation, under Sections 506 and 186 of the Penal Code, and Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955.

“The suspect will be granted bail once the investigation is completed, as there are other police reports lodged against her,” he said in a statement today.

Yesterday, another video clip went viral involving the suspect arguing with the public in the parking lot of a shopping centre in Brickfields.

In the video clip, the suspect was also seen recording the incident with her mobile phone while uttering obscene words. – Bernama, June 18, 2023
