Wanita MCA Selangor notes that Petaling Jaya district police chief Asst Comm Mohamad Fakhruddin Abdul Hamid has affirmed that the police are investigating a police officer who allegedly uttered words indicative of victim-blaming.

The episode apparently occurred when a cosplayer went to lodge a report attired in her costume play (cosplay) dress over an alleged stalking and harassment incident during an event called Anime Fest at Paradigm Mall.
