Last year, she worked with Anwar’s lawyers, with paperwork filed to allow her to represent the PKR de facto leader.

Meanwhile, Anwar’s daughter, Nurul Nuha Anwar, said that although her father is in pain, he has not been allowed to undergo a certain types of physiotherapy due to the restrictions imposed upon him.

“He is in pain and on humanitarian grounds, he should not be in prison,” she said.

Are the highlighted commas needed, as Anwar has more than one daughter?

Thanks.

@tanguatlay,
The commas are needed as they set off "Nurul Nuha Anwar," which is a modifier of "Anwar's daughter."

That Anwar has more than one daughter is irrelevant to the comma usage rule that applies in the sentence.
