I READ with utter dismay the report “‘DPP decided against sexual harassment prosecution’” (The Star, Aug 31; online at https://bit.ly/34PJOKH), which quoted Brickfields OCPD Asst Comm Zailrulnizam Mohd Zainuddin@Hilmi saying the DPP (deputy public prosecutor) made the decision after considering that the public university where the offence took place had taken action against the suspect.
This reasoning is astounding considering the fact that the suspect was investigated under Section 354 of the Penal Code for outrage of modesty.
