On Thursday, Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said the ministry would seek Interpol's assistance in tracking international syndicates using Malaysian women as drug couriers.The previous day, it was reported that more than 20 Malaysian women in their 20s were detained by a drug syndicate in a house in Madrid.
The syndicate had been using Madrid as its centre in Europe and recruited Malaysian women as couriers to Brazil, Australia, Mexico and China.
It was believed that three African men and a Malaysian were key players in the plan to lure the women with promises of lucrative pay by working overseas.Two of their victims -- Norfaizura Azura Md Lias, 21, from Pangkor, Perak, and Dayang Sakienah Mat Lazim, 20, from Bukit Payung, Terengganu -- were detained by Malta police recently.
