Fwd Mails Received - Woman's Right 6pm to 6am

Got this from mum's mail forwarding activities..hahah...not sure how true is this right..but worth taking note about it...

Subject: Woman's Right 6pm to 6am (must read),
Good for Our Knowlegde
Dear all,
IMPORTANT
Women's Rights 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.
I was talking with a lawyer friend of mine.
We were discussing the law and women's rights.
She told me about this incident - a young girl was raped by a man posing as a plain clothes officer; he asked her to come to the police station when she and her male friend didn't have a driver's license to show. He sent the boy off to get his license and asked the girl to accompany him to the police station.
Took her instead to an isolated area where the horrendous crime was committed.
In fact, the law clearly states that between 6 pm and 6 am, a woman has the right to REFUSE to go to the Police Station, even if an arrest warrant has been issued against her... It is a procedural issue that a woman can be arrested between 6 pm and 6 am, ONLY if she is arrested by a woman officer and taken to an ALL WOMEN police station. And if she is arrested by a male officer, it has to be proven that a woman officer was on duty at the time of arrest.
It is good for us to know our rights. To what extent it comes of use remains to be seen in any situation. But as they say, knowledge is power. Just thought I'd share this with you. I did not know this and am sure lot of us will not know this- please be informed.....
And pass on this info to whom all you know........

WHAT TO DO IF STOPPED BY MALAYSIAN POLICE

I do not know how true is the story but knowing is better than not knowing at times..This can be a very useful information although it may be sometime ago kind of story... The next time you are stopped by persons who claimed they are plainclothes police, you are under no obligation to answer their questions or follow their orders, lawyers told Malaysiakini today. "Policeman who is not wearing his uniform does not have the authority to stop anyone," lawyer and human rights activist Sivarasa Rasiah said. Sivarasa was commenting on the alleged gang-rape of an 18-year-old Uni student by four men claiming to be police officers on New Year's Eve. The girl said that her car was stopped in Taman Tun Dr Ismail in Kuala Lumpur and were asked by the men to open the car bonnet. She was then told that she had committed an offence and ordered to follow the men to a police station. The girl was driven in her car along the North-South expressway to the Tapah-Cameron Highlands road before...

Weekend within Klang Valley

It has been many many many weeks since I last spent my weekend here without traveling to anywhere out of Klang Valley..and yet, weekend was interesting! Saturday - Started my morning workout with Mary at gym by attending Kat's Fitball Core class. One very crucial lesson learnt in the class was - in order to stay balanced with the ball, u shall stay focus! This does not apply only in the class, but we should apply to our daily life as well. Agree with me? Headed to church for Sabbath Service after lunch. The sermon by Pr Daniel was about Lead a much More Beautiful Life :) Guess the message just came to me at the right time. Another reminder to myself too! At night - haha, another interesting event. Went for SHAPE & MEN'S HEALTH MAGAZINE's Night Marathon 5km. The timing wasn't really good as I took 40mins to complete 5km..hmmm..need more training! Sunday! Is the best day besides Saturday because, you don't have to work! Breakfast with Fern after such a long time (...

I Nearly Lost All of Them

Well, if my mum is reading this..i can visualise her starting to nag about my carelessness...yes mum..I know...I am indeed careless.. I left my sports shoe at gym's locker this morning...Only realise it when i reach office (half hour after I left gym)..First thing first in the office, I searched for IOI Fitness First number..got it and called... Hello...Hmm I left my shoe at locker number XXX,..can you check? Just a while ago.. The front desk replied..Oh ..okie can I have your name and contact number...blah blah blah..I gave and he promised to call me back... After more than an hour, no one called. So, in desperation to know if my shoe is still there..I called back.Hmm i called just now about my shoe..the same person answered..Oh Oh..lena rite? We checked and there is none...i was like HUH???!!!! cannot be just a while ago only....he said..yes, miss..we checked other lockers also ..cant find any....SILENCE>SAD>>>> He acknowledge the silence by saying...okok..let me...
