Don't go napping everywhere, you end up losing only...

Saw this newspaper report from TheStar at the following URL, Rude shock for guard

Read more from the link above.

The old man was napping there but he was caught. Not the issue that he was caught, just that the treatment that he got from the respective government officials, such disappointment...

As quoted:

I was stripped naked and given a sarong. They also gave me a plastic mat, blanket and pillow,” he said.  

Initially he was refused a call to his employer as he only had 30 sen left on his prepaid phone.  

However, when the officer discovered that he had a Maybank account, and upon giving his PIN number and ATM card, he was allowed to use the handphone immediately, Lim said.  

The officer, Lim claimed, said he would top up the credit on the phone.

Personal Views:

Can the official refuse him his rights to call a person and also to prove his statement that he is not homeless and jobless? I thought we were still relying on evidence rather than the mood of the officer? Obtaining the PIN for the ATM? First of all, is he in the right place to ask for the PIN number? Who is he? His father? Father also can report police if this happens. Helping him to top up or just another way to say, i am going to top-up my wallet using your ATM card, like it or not, i am going to get the money, like it or not, you are going to give me the PIN. PIN = Personal Identification Number and only to be known by the single person only, not on sharing basis.

Sigh, based on the story by the man, hopefully he is not old until 'nyayuk' and if that story turns out to be true, the officer do not deserve to be in the Welfare Department, could it be personal welfare? Guess not...who cares...

"He who holds the authority always find their way through"...

Hope this man get his justice and also the officer in the report. My comments are only based on the facts that the story is actually correct and not based on individual basis. But it would be rather stupid of him to have documented his 'arrest' and then taking his ATM card for a joy ride, it's so stupid at is points it back to him... :)
