Three Indian suspected wildlife traffickers were seized in Malaysia along with several animal parts including tiger skins, dpa cited an official as saying Friday.
The two men and a woman were arrested in two raids in central Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday after a week-long surveillance, according to wildlife department enforcement director Abdul Kadir Abu Hasim.
Wildlife officers recovered 1,241 animal parts including tiger skins, elephant hairs, tiger claws, tiger teeth and tiger paws, he said.
He said the suspects appeared to have been plying their illegal trade for about a year, before his officers received a tipoff.
'The suspects entered the country as tourists,' he said.
