Triplets run from abusive mother

MALAYSIA: A set of six-year-old Malaysian triplets ran 20
kilometers away from their mother possibly to escape physical
abuse, local media reported on Friday.

The boys, Mohamad Arif Adilan, Mohamad Arif Asraq and Mohamad
Arif Aiman, were found wandering in front of their grandfather's
house in Tumpat, eastern Kelantan state, police said.

"Two of the boys have bruises on their faces and back,"
district police spokesman Juri Yunos was quoted as saying by the
Bernama news agency.

He said the boys' father lodged a report alleging that the
boys ran away from his former wife. The case will be
investigated, he added.

The triplets have been hospitalized and are receiving
treatment.

Meanwhile, other police officials said the triplets' mother
has lodged a report alleging that the boys had been abducted by
Suhaimi. --AFP
