Kuala Lumpur, May 24 (IBNS) A mass grave has been found close to 17 human trafficking detention camps in Malaysia's Padang Besar, country's authority said.

Home Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi  was quoted as saying by The Star newspaper: "Maybe even five-years. I am shocked!”

"The grave and camps, in Wang Kelian and several small villages along the border town of Padang Besar, were discovered by VAT69 and General Operations Force (GOF) officers last week," the newspaper reported.

The camps have been abandoned.

“One grave maybe has three, four bodies. But we don’t know how many there are. We are probably going to find more bodies,” Ahmad Zahid said.
