Child-focused NGO urges Malaysian government to provide proper medical and psychological care to victims of Richard Huckle.
PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian government must ensure that proper medical and psychological care is made freely available to the 23 children and families who were exploited and sexually abused by Richard Huckle.
This was a statement made by non-governmental organisation World Vision Malaysia (WVM), after Richard Huckle admitted in court yesterday to committing 71 of 91 charges of sexually abusing 23 children from mainly poor communities in Kuala Lumpur.
WVM CEO K J Abraham said it was “imperative” that the children were provided with the care and protection they needed, for as long as they needed it.
“These children and families were already in a fragile and vulnerable situation when Huckle identified and abused them. His damaging actions could well have destroyed their psychological, social and mental fibre, and the subsequent media and public attention may trigger further traumatic experiences.
