Indonesian authorities said the employment recruiters -- an unidentified husband and wife -- used forged documents to send 20-year-old victim Adelina Sau to Malaysia in 2015. The Indonesian recruiters were taken into custody Wednesday on trafficking charges, while another suspect is being pursued, police said. A brother and sister, as well as their mother, who employed Adelina, have been arrested in Malaysia. In 2014, a Malaysian couple were sentenced to hang for starving their Indonesian maid to death. Official Indonesian figures showed some 62 migrant workers from East Nusa Tenggara died last year while working in Malaysia, mostly illegally.
