There should be no significant barriers for police in their efforts to locate M Indira Gandhi’s abducted daughter, stressed former chief justice Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat.

Speaking at an Allianz Centre for Governance (ACG) event in Kuala Lumpur today, Tengku Maimun pointed out that the police had shown their competence in handling other cases.

In particular, she referred to the police’s capture of perpetrators in the 2013 murders of cosmetics businessperson Sosilawati Lawiya and her three aides, as well as the 2006 murder of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu.

“In these cases, police were very competent (as) they managed to find the perpetrators, allowing charges to be pressed in court.

“I personally think there would be no strong obstacle for the police to locate (Indira’s) child, but I really don’t know the reason why, until now, the child has not been located and returned to the mother,” Tengku Maimun said.
