00:00The University Malaya Feminism Club, UMFC, held a demonstration on Friday, urging university
00:10administrators to take firm action against a professor accused of sexual harassment.
00:16Around 30 students and alumni members gathered outside the UM's Chancellery building.
00:23A student received nude photos allegedly from the professor and the student decided to disclose
00:36the nude photos publicly after the university didn't respond to the report made by the student.
00:45After UMFC set in and exposed this case, the professor filed one police report towards the victim
00:56to spread the nude photos publicly. And in the report, they also mentioned about UMFC defaming him.
01:04UMFC demanded for the university to revisit the memorandum they submitted last March,
01:11proposing for the creation of an Anti-Sexual Misconduct Committee and to improve campus safety policies.
01:18We will try to monitor these cases and at the same time we will keep in touch with the victim
01:25and maybe with respecting to the victim's will, maybe we will escalate these cases to the Anti-Sexual Harassment Tribunal.
01:35On Wednesday, UM issued a statement saying that the case was being investigated by the authorities
01:41and could not comment any further.
