KUALA LUMPUR: An unidentified elderly man who was accused of sexual harassment based on an out-of-context viral video taken on an LRT train was recently located by a netizen and allowed to tell his side of the story. The elderly man – known only as Pak Abu – gained notoriety through the viral video which showed him seated on a Sri Petaling line LRT train next to a sleeping young woman, whose legs were exposed by her shorts. Moreover, Ramesh developed a sense of protectiveness over Pak Abu, whom he noted has poor vision and struggles with health problems. Ramesh had previously participated in a live Facebook session with celebrity ustaz, Ebit Lew, who expressed indignation over the accusations levelled against Pak Abu. The young man had also vowed to track down the person who uploaded the viral video and urge them to make amends.
