A 34-year-old Malaysian woman from Johor Bahru had to experience a traumatic moment in her life when she was stalked by her client who ALMOST kidnapped her.
Ms Wen worked in the sales industry and helped clients manage their social media. She left her job last year before starting her own business. In September this year, Wen contacted Chen, a male client whom she had found during her employment with her previous company.
Chen agreed to support Wen’s new business and gave her an iPhone so she could help manage his social media platform. Little did Wen know, the device was just the beginning of the horror to come.
“I want you, and I love you”
Since then, Wen has been receiving messages from Chen, who made it clear that he wants to pursue her. Texts that indicate he wants her, such as “I love you,” have become common.
Wen ignored, but the persistent Chen did not give up, and he was not happy to be ignored.
“He started spreading fake news about me, saying I am a mistress who destroys other people’s families and sleep with other man for money.”
She decided to cease all dealings with Chen, who then contacted her again on October 29 around 3 am to ask for the phone back. Wen was surprised to see Chen outside her doorstep, reported China Press.
Chen installed a GPS in the device so that he could trace her location
The stalker promised to leave her alone after she returned his phone, but he drove away after Wen stepped out of her house. She returned the device and left it at Chen’s workplace. Unfortunately, the stalking episode did not end there.
On Christmas Eve, after the appointment with her beautician, Wen felt like she was being followed and Chen surfaced when she was going to her car.
Chen forced her to go into his car, and Wen struggled to escape him by yelling “Help!”, but to no avail. No one came forward to help, not especially after Chen told others that Wen was his girlfriend. Wen also suffered injuries on her knees and elbow during the struggle.
The quarrel and struggle only ended when someone called PDRM, and the police arrived at the scene.
Wen shared her traumatic experience in a press conference yesterday (December 27) accompanied by the director of Johor’s Bersatu Public Complaints Bureau.
