REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The Indonesian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur continues to assist the Malaysian Diraja Police (PDRM) in identifying two victims of mutilation in Sungai Buloh, Selangor. Indonesian government focused on identifying the victims, so that their identity and citizenship could be ascertained.

"The allegation that the two victims were Indonesian citizens have so far merely been based on complaints of losing contact delivered by two Indonesian citizens to the Indonesian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur after the discovery and visual identification of two bodies," Director of Foreign Affairs and Indonesian Legal Entity Protection Lalu Muhammad Iqbal, said in a short message received in Jakarta on Tuesday.
