Wol f wh i st le

law snares

700 in a year

MORE than 700 men were

fined in the first year of the

so-called “cat call” law in

France, official figures

revealed yesterday.

French authorities are

trying to clamp down on

wolf-whistling, lewd

comments and

inappropriate gestures to

protect women from

sexual harassment.

Offenders face fines of

up to €1,500 (£1,378).

Gender equality minister

Marlene Schiappa tweeted:

“It is no longer permissible

and must no longer be

tolerated to insult, to

follow, to humiliate women

by harassing them in the

street, on transport or in a

public space.”

By Michael Knowles

assisted by the local Orang

Asli people, who have

knowledge of the dense

jungle terrain.

Even more personnel are

expected to join the 160

people already taking part

in the operation.

Police have also brought

in a specialist dog unit to

help with the search.

State deputy police chief

Che Zakaria Othman said:

“We’ve got a platoon from

the general operations

force as well as a police

canine team to look for

Nora.”

He also said police had

expanded the operation

beyond the initial seven-

mile radius.

Nora, who has special

needs, vanished in

Malaysia on a family “trip

of a lifetime”. Her

distraught parents Meabh

and Seb, who live in

London, woke on Sunday

to find her missing from

her bedroom at the Dusun

resort, 40 miles south of

the capital Kuala Lumpur.

Her family in the UK

issued another statement

yesterday, echoing her

parents’ fears, saying:

“Nora’s family believe she

has been abducted.

“We are especially

worried because Nora has

learning and

developmental disabilities,

and is not like other

15-year-olds.

“She looks younger, she

is not capable of taking

care of herself, and she

won’t understand what is

going on. She never goes

anywhere by herself.

“We have no reason to

believe she wandered off

and is lost.

“Nora has shoulder-

length wavy dark blonde

hair and blue eyes. She is

5ft 1in and thin.

“If you have any

information, please pass it

on so we can assist the

local police in any way

possible.”

Police said Nora’s

passport and other

belongings were still in her

family’s possession, but

the CCTV system at the

resort only covered a

limited area.

The Dusun resort is a

12-acre complex in the

foothills of the Titiwangsa

mountains, and sits next to

the 4,000-acre Berembun

Forest Reserve.
