The second charge was for smuggling Delwar between October 2014 and April 2015 while the third was for smuggling Joy at 4am between November 2014 and May 3, 2015.

All four accused nodded as soon as the charges were read to them in Burmese, Thai and Bangladeshi languages by three different interpreters.

They were charged with committing the offences under Section 26A of the Anti-Trafficking in Persons and Anti-Smuggling of Migrants Act 2007 which provides for a maximum jail term of 15 years or fine or both upon conviction.

Magistrate Mohd Izmi Ibrahim set June 9 for mention of the case in the Sessions Court here.
