A human rights group has called on the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) and the police to act on the alleged assault of a disabled e-hailing driver by a VVIP’s security escort.

Lawyers for Liberty (LFL) Latheefa Koya, who is representing the victim, Ong Ing Keong, said on June 5, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain said the case’s investigation papers have been sent to the AGC for action.

She urged the AGC and police to explain the delay and take necessary action.
On May 31, His Royal Highness Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim, the Regent of Johor urged the police to probe Ong’s alleged assault.

Tunku Ismail said he wanted justice for the victim.

It was previously, reported that the police were probing the alleged assault, purportedly involving a bodyguard tasked with escorting a VVIP.

Later, the e-hailing driver, who is deaf-mute, lodged a report stating that the matter had been resolved and that he did not want to prolong the matter.
