PETALING JAYA: A 43-year-old mother’s worst nightmare was realised when her teenage daughter went missing.
Roslah Abdul Jani believes that her second child Nur Dhiya Ain Rosman (pic), 19, is being used as a drug mule by a syndicate. Roslah said she received a call from her daughter at about midnight on Aug 9 saying that she was at KLIA waiting to board a plane to Africa with an African man.
Her daughter also asked for her blessing for a safe return and said she was going away for three days. “I thought she was joking initially but felt something was amiss when she hung up within a minute and could not be reached after that. “We are extremely worried about her,” she told a press conference organised by Umno Youth’s community complaints bureau yesterday.
The shipping operator manager, who could not hold back her tears, said she and her husband AC Musa were on their way back to their home in Kuala Lumpur after visiting relatives in Malacca when Nur Dhiya called her. She said the airline confirmed that her daughter left on a 2.50am flight for Doha before going to Cape Town in South Africa.
Roslah also said she could not understand how her daughter managed to get a passport. She added that her daughter was frequently on Facebook and had befriended a group of African men recently. Umno Youth community complaints bureau head Datuk Muhd Khairun Aseh said they had contacted Wisma Putra, Interpol and the South African authorities to help locate Nur Dhiya.
“Young women are frequently being used for drug trafficking,” he said, and urged the Government to set up a task force to look into the issue.
