SHE was asleep when an ‘orang minyak’ (oily man) undressed and raped her.
The 31-year-old nurse, who was alone in her dormitory, was awoken by the man whose face and body was covered with oil.
The man had entered the all-female nurses’ dormitory at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital (HKL) yesterday morning, despite HKL’s claims that security was tight.
Armed with a knife, he threatened the nurse before tying up her hands and legs.
He also used a handkerchief to gag her, Guangming Daily reported.
The 2am incident took place while the nurse’s two roommates were out.
She was found naked and bound in her room three hours later when a security guard making his rounds heard her screaming, reported Bernama.
Her parents were informed and they accompanied her to make a police report.
The nurse told the police she was in a daze when she was raped. She vaguely recalled seeing a man enter the room.
At that point, she said that she turned cold and had no strength to put up a struggle.
Frozen in terror, she was raped.
The nurse believes she had been a victim of an ‘orang minyak’, a creature of Malaysian folklore believed to rape virgins to attain more powers.
HKL declined to comment on the incident.
The nurses’ dormitories are fenced in and security guards are also employed round the clock. Men are not allowed to enter.
