Malaysia Notes

JOHOR BARU: A 39-year-old waitress went into hiding after a man threatened to distribute her nude photos.

Tan Chui Peng took her three children aged between 9 and 11 when she left her house in Taman Ehsan Jaya on Oct 31.

Her husband, Wang Ban Soon, 51, said the problem started when Tan befriended a customer, known as Ah Kiong, three months ago.

“I told her not to entertain this man because I had a bad feeling, but she did not listen to me,” the lorry driver told a press conference at the Johor MCA Youth Public Service and Complaints Bureau.

“She finally admitted she was having an affair with him. When I pressed further, she explained that the man had threatened to distribute her nude photos on the Internet if she didn’t continue with the relationship,” he said.

Wang said his wife quit and went to work in Singapore but the man kept bothering her by sending SMSes.

“On Oct 31, my wife complained of having a headache and told me that she was going to the clinic. I discovered that she had taken the children with her when I returned home from work at night,” he said.

Wang, who has made a police report, said he was worried for the safety of his wife and children.
