JOHOR BAHRU - The six-year-old girl Albertine Leo Jia Hui, who was reported missing and believed to have been kidnapped in Iskandar Puteri last Saturday has returned to her family.
The update came via a Facebook post from Barbie Hui Hui, who shared a photo of the child with her mother, Leo Qieo Xin, her father and several other family members.

The child received treatment at Selayang Hospital in Selangor on Tuesday morning before being returned to Johor Bahru under the strict supervision of the police force.
