TAMPIN, Malaysia - A Form Three student from a secondary school near here was repeatedly raped by a bogus policeman in a rubber plantation in Felda Bukit Rotan near here early on Wednesday morning.

The girl was on her way home about 1am after going to Gemas town with her boyfriend when they did not realise they were being followed by two men in a car from Gemas to Felda Jelai.

When they reached a bridge at Pasir Besar, the vehicle overtook their van and forced them to stop.

It is learnt that as soon as the boyfriend stopped the van, a man opened the door and identified himself as a policeman before pulling out a knife and holding it to the boy-friend's abdomen.

The couple were forced to drive to a nearby rubber plantation where the two men then asked the boyfriend to stay in the van while one of them took the girl out.

The man then ordered the girl to undress and threatened her with the knife. He slapped her a few times when she refused.

While one of the men stood guard at the van with the boyfriend, the other raped the girl thrice till about 6am before the two men left the couple at the plantation.

The victim and her boyfriend later lodged a report at the Gemencheh police station.

District police chief Superintendent Zull Aznam Harun confirmed that a report had been lodged and that police had mounted a search for the suspects.

He said the victim had been sent to the Tampin Hospital for a medical check-up.
