It was not getting a treatment for stroke which pushed the alleged slaves held captive for 30 years to ask for help.
As fresh details of their secretive commune emerge, AFP reported that Siti Aishah Abdul Wahab, held captive by a Maoist couple, may have suffered a stroke.
Police also believed they were occasionally allowed out of the house and detectives are working to understand the "invisible handcuffs" that were used to control them.
Meanwhile, the sister of the victim Kamarmahtum Abdul Wahab, met up with the Malaysian High Commissioner in London, Datuk Seri Zakaria Sulong at 4:30pm (local time) on Wednesday to discuss the possibility of meeting her sister.
According to AWANI’s Magazine Editor, Zan Azlee Zainal Abidin, there is only a slim chance for the meeting to happen and the alternative is for a letter from Kamarmahtum be given to her.
Yesterday, Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar told reporters that although it was true that the police had initially intended to arrest her three decades ago, there would be no problem for Siti Aishah to return to Malaysia now following her migration to the United Kingdom.
"If she wants to return, please do so. I feel that it would be a waste of the police's time if we were to go after her now,” he said.
The Daily Telegraph on Wednesday posted a video, shot in 1997, believed to be of the women rescued from alleged slavery.
