KUALA LUMPUR: One of the two brothers who were reported missing in Taman Bernam Jaya, Hulu Bernam, Selangor on Jan 1 was found in a weak state at Pasar Seni LRT Station here on Jan 11.
The victims' mother said her son, affectionately known as Along, 17, claimed that an unknown individual kept him and his 16-year-old brother in a motel in Jalan Petaling here.
