PETALING JAYA: A 24-year-old man claims he was sodomised by a tattoo artist.
The incident on Tuesday allegedly happened when the victim went to the tattoo artist's premises to get a tattoo.
Petaling Jaya district police chief, Assistant Commissioner Shahrulnizam Ja'afar, said at one point, the victim lost consciousness, while the tattoo artist was working on him, in the 9.30pm incident.
"The victim claimed that the tattoo artist was drawing a flower on the victim's hand, and wiped his arm with an oily substance, which caused him to pass out," he said, when contacted.
When the victim regained consciousness, he realised that he was naked, said Shahrulnizam.
"He immediately left the premises, and believes he had been sodomised," said Shahrulnizam, adding that the victim lodged a police report before seeking medical treatment at the Universiti Malaya Medical Centre.
He said so far, no arrests have been made.
"We have classified the case under Section 377B of the Penal Code for committing carnal intercourse against the order of nature," he said.
