S'gor police: Kidnapped child victim molested, to be sold to prostitution ring

A 12-year-old girl who was abducted in Bandar Bukit Tinggi 1, Klang last Tuesday is believed to have been molested and to be sold to a prostitution syndicate.

Selangor police chief Hussein Omar Khan said that based on an investigation, four individuals in a car, including a woman known to the victim, had invited the girl for a ride and then took her to a rented apartment in Setia Alam, where she was confined for four days.

“During that period, the victim is believed to have been sexually molested by two suspects aged 13 and 23.

“The 23-year-old suspect is believed to have contacted a prostitution syndicate in Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur, over a dealing to sell the girl,” he said when met at the disposal of case items involving various types of drugs at the Selangor police contingent headquarters in Shah Alam today.

Hussein said the syndicate was unable to proceed with the deal after police acted quickly in disseminating news of the child’s disappearance.

He said it also resulted in the suspect booking an e-hailing vehicle and asking the victim to return home on Oct 12.

“The investigation found that the child was abused and made to smoke electronic cigarettes, causing her to be in a delusional state,” he said.

Hussein said the remand order against the six suspects in the case ends tomorrow, but the police will request to extend it.

Police are also tracking two more suspects in the case being investigated under Section 363 of the Penal Code.
