Reports say the two Mongolian women were detained at a roadblock in Petaling Jaya.
Their lawyer, Matthew Thomas Philip, said the initial detention of the three women was against their fundamental human rights, adding that their release was a big relief. “With the whistleblowers freed today, we take it as a first step forward towards justice in this case,” he said in a statement today.
The officer allegedly took the women to a hotel on April 10, where he was accused of raping them. This allegedly came after they were arrested at a roadblock over claims they did not possess valid travel documents.
