A woman allegedly held as a slave for 30 years has been "rescued" from a house in south London, police said.

Police have arrested two suspects, a 67-year-old man and a 67-year-old woman, at their home in south London.

Officers were contacted by the Freedom Charity in October after it received a call from a woman saying she had been held against her will for decades.

A Malaysian woman, 69, an Irish woman, 57, and a British woman, 30, were all rescued from the house, police said.

There needs to be automatic life prison sentences for any act of slavery. Also seize all assets to pay compensation to the victims. Any family members who would possibly lose out should have informed the police.

Armagh or not, in a country with a population of under 1.9m, quite a few people will have known or had an inkling of what was going on there :x
