Malaysian police also arrested four women, including a 37-year-old Singaporean believed to be the middleman for the baby-for-sale activity.
South Klang OCPD Assistant Commissioner Mohamad Mat Yusop said police surveillance led them to a cafe at the mall, where the Singaporean was spotted with three other local women.
'Many photos of babies were found on the Singaporean's mobile phone, more than 10. And there were messages indicating transactions took place,' he said.
