| [Straits Times] A 28-YEAR-OLD DIVORCEE sought help from a religious association president, only to be held captive and repeatedly raped by the man for a week. The woman was locked in a room at a condominium unit in Pandan Indah where the man, who claims to be the president of a private religious welfare association, lived. She was rescued by neighbours, who heard her cries for help on Friday, after he had left the house, Ampang police chief Asst Comm Abdul Jalil Hassan said on Saturday. The woman had wanted to begin a new life with her eight-year-old daughter after leaving her husband, and the 38-year-old man promised to help when she approached him on Nov 20. He assured her that he would get her a job and a house and offered his place for her to stay. He had told her his mother was staying with him. He then brought her and the child to his condominium unit located nearby. She suspected something amiss when she did not see the man's mother. When she questioned him, he said his mother was away for a few days. Later that night, the man told her he wanted to talk to her alone and said it would be best if the daughter slept in another room. Once they were alone, he forced himself on her. He also threatened to harm the daughter if she tried to escape. ACP Abdul Jalil said the woman began screaming when the man left the house on Friday. 'A neighbour broke into the house and rescued her and then accompanied the two to the police station... A suspect was arrested at the Puduraya bus station.' |

| #2 Sounds like the old joke about a cowboy riding past a ranch house when he sees that something is amiss. He hears a woman inside, yelling for help, so goes inside to see her husband dead, and the woman, naked and tied to the bed. "Oh, thank heavens!", says the woman to the cowboy. "Two men broke in here, shot my husband, tied me to the bed and raped me, then rode off! You can still track them down and shoot them, and avenge my honor!" The cowboy pondered this for a few seconds, then started to pull down his pants, saying, "Golly, ma'am, looks like you're just having a bad day all around!" |

| #1 I wouldn't call that a Good Samaritan, I would call that a man who saw a vulnerable woman and made a bad situation worse. |
