A YouTube video of a Sarawakian Melanau girl who claimed to have fallen victim to slavery and human trafficking in Johor Bahru and ended up becoming a refugee after fleeing to Europe six years ago has surfaced and went viral in Facebook overnight.
In the video released under the Polaris Northern Star Channel on May 9, the girl who only identified herself as Lily was accompanied by a European man who claimed to be her guardian and best friend.
The video has since been watched over 300,000 times with over 500 comments as of noon today. Lily said she was a victim of slavery at 23 years old and had went through repeated abuse, being locked up, severely beaten and exploited in Johor Bahru before escaping to Europe in 2011.
One of her eyes lost vision as a result of the attempted murder by the Malaysian Police in Johor.
“I am fleeing from corruption from Johor Bahru. The police tried to kill me. They actually set up the trap to kill me.”
She also revealed that the criminals had attempted to sell her off as slave for 30,000 Singapore dollars and the corrupted police officers of Taman University in Johor, who were involved, only watched as she was beaten and locked up.
Her male friend added that when he met Lily in Singapore, he found out that she was economically exploited and abused to the point that she regularly collapsed and has severe health problems while all her money were confiscated.
