IPOH (Bernama): The police are making efforts to bring home 40 Malaysians in Syria who are seeking to return home after being detained for suspected involvement in terrorism activities there. "A total of 40 from 65 Malaysians detained in Syria had contacted us and told us they want to come home. "We have obtained information that the camps in Syria are in critical situation, especially due to food shortage," he said. In October last year, the police successfully brought home a Malaysian woman and two of her children, a Malaysian man and another Malaysian woman whose husband, a Daesh group member, was killed during warfare. Ayob Khan said the Malaysian men brought home will be charged in court while for the women, it will depend on the level of influence they were under.
