THE police will not be seeking any help from outside parties for now to track M. Indira Gandhi’s missing daughter, said Inspector-General of Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun.

He however said the force welcomes any leads from the public on the whereabouts of the child.

“We have yet to get assistance from outside parties but there is a notice that we welcome any information or lead on Indira’s daughter for those who have it,” he said at the Central Police Training Centre (Pulapol) in Kuala Lumpur today.

Fuzi said the police will seek help from its counterparts in neighbouring countries if there are new leads on the location of Indira’s daughter in certain countries.

He added he is also unable to confirm if she has left the country because checks with the immigration showed no signs of her leaving the country.

“We do not have any leads that would work out for us in tracking her daughter,” he added.

The volunteer group which tracks Indira’s missing daughter has sought the help of the Thai authorities after Malaysian police had allegedly not shown any interest in the case.

Arun Dorasamy of the Indira Gandhi Action Team (Ingat) said they have four credible leads which points to Indira’s ex-husband, Muhammad Riduan Abdullah, hiding in southern Thailand.

Riduan, whose original name is K. Patmanathan, took the then 11-month-old Prasana from Indira in 2009 to convert the child and two older children to Islam without Indira’s consent.

The older children have remained with Indira and are raised as Hindu but Prasana has been missing since then. The child is now about 11 years’ old. – March 15, 2019.
