JOHOR BARU: The two half-sisters who were prostituted by their mother are coping well under the care of the state Welfare Department. The girls were placed in a welfare home on Oct 31 after being warded in a hospital, said the department’s director Datuk Daud Arbah. Daud said the girls were also undergoing counselling with the department’s counsellor once or twice a week. The department, said Daud, was in the midst of transferring the girls to a school nearer to the home. Meanwhile, police said they were close to nabbing the three main suspects, all Bangladeshi men, in the case.
