Penang police said yesterday: <\/p>\n
Polis Sedang mengesan empat lelaki warga Myanmar yang dipercayai terlibat dalam kejadian culik dan bunuh membabitkan rakan senegara mereka pada selasa lalu. <\/p>\n
YDH. Ketua Polis Daerah Timur Laut, ACP Mior Faridalathrash bin Wahid berkata identiti empat lelaki berusia 30-an itu telah dikenal pasti dan mereka dipercayai masih berada di Pulau Pinang dan Kedah. <\/p>\n
Empat lelaki termasuk perancang utama dalam kes culik dan bunuh itu telah dikenal pasti dan siasatan kami juga mendapati mereka adalah anggota sindiket pemerdagangan manusia. Polis percaya dengan beberapa maklumat dan perkembangan baru yang diperolehi kami mampu mengesan mereka ( empat lelaki Myanmar itu ) dan menyelesaikan kes berkenaan. <\/p>\n
The latest body to be found was on Tuesday morning and police are probing whether this case is linked to a human trafficking operation in Kedah. <\/p>\n
The United States had downgraded Malaysia and three other countries to Tier 3 the lowest possible ranking in its annual Trafficking of Persons (TIP) Report due to insufficient action taken to prevent human trafficking and forced labour. <\/p>\n
