A photograph of and document concerning the death of Yufrinda Selan, an alleged victim of human trafficking whose body was sent home in 2016, are shown by her parents to Kompas when it visited her home in Tuppan village, Batu Putih district, Timor Tengah Selatan regency, East Nusa Tenggara, on Friday (7/7/2019) . In the document, various personal data such as name, year of birth and address was changed by her recruiters.

Eighteen-year-old A.M. recalled how she decided to go to Malaysia in 2018. Her tears began to flow when she arrived at the bleakest point in her story. She referred to her time in forced prostitution as “not good work”.

“When I was raped, I cried and screamed for help, but nobody came. But I could hear I had a friend in the next room who was also crying,” A.M. said in an angry tone during an interview at her home in South Central Timor regency, East Nusa Tenggara.
