A Malaysian victim of human trafficking was successfully rescued after she managed to reach out to the Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister Samdech Krolahom Sar Kheng on social media for help
A spokesperson from the Cambodian Ministry of Interior reported on Wednesday, 24 August, that the victim reached out to Sar Kheng for help through a Facebook post, informing him that she was held captive at the coastal city of Sihanoukville, located in the south-west of Cambodia.
She had allegedly attempted to pay for her release by giving RM31,000 to her captors. Unfortunately, she reported that she was later sold to another syndicate.
