A 14-year-old Malaysian girl that was kidnapped and found at Bangkok’s Hua Lamphong Train Station is so traumatized that she is unable to speak to the police.
The girl was found by police with five other girls from Myanmar at the train station on March 11, in what may have been part of a child sex trafficking operation. She was returned home March 19.
Shah Alam policeman Zahedi Ayob said that she is in the hospital and responding well.
“However, she cannot remember much. She only told us that she was abducted in a white van from Section 9,” he said, according to the Star. “We hope the Thai authorities will send the Myanmar citizens here so that we can probe further. We are investigating if these teenagers were also kidnapped the same day that the girl was abducted.”
Zahedi did not confirm definitively whether she was kidnapped for child prostitution, but said that the case was being investigated under Section 366 of the Penal Code for kidnapping for the purpose of prostitution
The girl was kidnapped from Shah Alam, Malaysia on Jan 30 after he mother dropped her off at a bus stop. When she didn’t return home her mother alerted the police. The girl called her mother on March 12 to say she she was in Thailand and that she had escaped from her kidnappers.
