Japanese influencer told to lodge report over stalking allegation

KUALA LUMPUR: Police have urged Japanese influencer and adult film star Rae Lil Black to come forward over allegations that she was stalked and groped on the streets here.

City police chief Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said while they were aware of the individual's claims, they had not received any police report.

"We advise those affected by such incidents to come forward and lodge reports. This is so that we have the necessary information to take action," he said following a visit to NSTP Balai Berita here on Monday.

The 28-year-old international adult film star took to X on Sept 29 over her allegations.

"Last night people stalked me on the street, one even groped me. I thought Kuala Lumpur is a safe city, but it's very funny as I thought so, too," she said.

Rusdi said the case was an isolated incident and assured people that Kuala Lumpur was safe.

It was reported that after announcing on social media in September that she would be heading to Malaysia for a visit, the influencer and adult film star shared updates on her trip here.

The Japanese Internet personality, whose real name is Kae Asakura, shared a series of pictures on Instagram yesterday clad in stylish modest wear and donning the hijab.

Previously, Rae had also posted several videos on TikTok that saw her visiting Dataran Merdeka with the caption, "Hello Kuala Lumpur".

Dressed in comfortable and loose-fitting clothes with a headscarf in the video, she was seen visiting a nasi kandar outlet where she ate the popular rice dish using her fingers.

However, Rae also shared in a tweet that she had been followed by stalkers in the city, with one person even groping her.

Netizens were quick to apologise for the unfortunate incident while many complimented her modest attire and for being respectful.

Rae, who recently moved to Thailand to learn Muay Thai, is also an athlete, owns a company and runs a popular YouTube channel where she shares her travel adventures and love for food.
