Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain said the three men, all aged between 20 and 22 will be charged under Section 14 of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017.

"We received orders from the Attorney-General's Chambers to charge the three suspects for alleged sexual abuse of children from homes linked to GISB.
