She is being investigated for beating him up with a few other men.

Northeast district police chief ACP Anuar Omar said the 43-year-old woman was brought to the Patani Road police station at noon. He declined to comment further.

It was reported yesterday that the Uber driver was arrested after flashing his private parts at a woman passenger.

A group of men later assaulted the Uber driver.

This morning, police remanded the 29-year-old Uber driver, who was seen crying, and three other men for a week at the Magistrate’s Court here.

The other men were believed involved in beating up the Uber driver. A video recording of the incident was spread on WhatsApp.

Police investigators said yesterday this was the second time the woman was meeting the man.

She first hailed the Uber service outside her home in Air Itam to go to George Town on Tuesday at 4pm.

During the trip, she told investigators the driver showed her his genitals and ordered her to touch it.

She told investigators she held the penis of the man “for a second” and let it go.

The Uber driver also took a selfie on the woman’s phone right after.

According to the woman, the Uber driver then harassed her by repeatedly calling her at night.

The woman then called her friends for help. They in turn advised her to inform her husband.

Yesterday, the 37-year-old husband and his Vietnamese wife allegedly called up the Uber driver to meet up.

As soon as the driver arrived in his Proton Saga, he was allegedly kicked and beaten up by a group of men armed with baseball bats.

The Uber driver told police he was innocent and had been slandered by the Vietnamese women.

A urine test on the driver was negative for drug use and he did not have any previous criminal conviction.

The Uber driver is being investigated for assaulting or using criminal force on a person with intent to outrage the modesty of the woman.

The woman, her husband and friends are being investigated for possession of weapons during a riot.
