PETALING JAYA: The families of Malaysian drug mules arrested in Hong Kong are urging authorities to provide more support for them, as it could help put an end to the syndicates’ operations.

The Star’s R.AGE investigative team revealed that drug syndicates were recruiting young desperate Malaysians as mules by offering them free holidays or high-paying courier jobs, and then asking them to carry items with concealed drugs.
