ALOR SETAR: A Rohingya from Myanmar, known as Yassin, is believed to be the main agent behind the human trafficking camps uncovered by Malaysian authorities in Wang Kelian, Perlis. 

Kedah Rohingya Society in Malaysia (RSM) deputy chairman Yusof Ali told Bernama that Yassin, who is in his 30s and lives in southern Thailand, might have slipped back to Myanmar after his activities were exposed.
