496 illegal immigrants nabbed in Seri Kembangan night raid
SERDANG: Thunderous knocks on doors by authorities during a joint operation at the Putra Permai Selesa apartment in Seri Kembangan last night sent illegal immigrants into a panic. Some went as far as hiding in the ceilings, while others tried his luck behind curtains to avoid arrest. The chaos during the integrated operation, which began at 10pm, caught the attention of residents. Some even stepped in to assist enforcement personnel by pointing out units believed to be housing undocumented foreigners. A long-time resident, who has lived in the apartment complex for 12 years, welcomed the enforcement action. "The number of foreigners has been increasing, and it's become a problem. "They throw rubbish everywhere, get into fights, and make the place dirty," he said. Several foreigners refused to come down from their hiding spots in the ceiling, prompting officers to climb up and physically extract them. One person sustained minor injuries after falling during a failed escape attempt. The operation, involving 217 personnel from seven enforcement agencies, led to the arrest of 496 illegal immigrants out of 741 foreigners inspected. Malaysian Immigration Department deputy director-general (Operations) Jafri Embok Taha said the joint operation involved officers from the Selangor and Kuala Lumpur Immigration Departments, the General Operations Force, Civil Defence Force, Subang Jaya City Council, and the National Registration Department. Those detained, aged between two months and 60, comprised nationals from Myanmar, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Thailand, Cambodia, and Nepal. The bulk of the detainees were 275 men, 80 women, and 30 children from Myanmar, followed by Indonesians (37 men and 25 women). "Others included foreigners from Bangladesh (15 men), Pakistan (13 men), Thailand (three men and one woman), Cambodia (one woman and two children), and Nepal (14 men). "They were detained for various immigration offences under the Immigration Act 1959/63, including overstaying, lacking valid documents, violating pass conditions, and possessing unrecognised cards. "All of them will be placed at the Semenyih Immigration Depot for investigation and further action," he said at a press conference. The department also uncovered three residential units being used as online gambling dens, believed to be operated by locals but employing and serving foreigners. Jafri reminded the public not to harbour, hire, or protect undocumented migrants, warning that doing so could lead to legal repercussions. He urged those with information about illegal immigrants to come forward. As part of ongoing efforts to manage undocumented migrants, the Migrant Repatriation Programme 2.0 is available from May 19 to April 30 next year. "The programme allows foreigners to voluntarily return to their home countries for a compound fine of RM500 and a special pass fee of RM20. He said the programme is available at four Selangor immigration offices, namely, Shah Alam, Kelana Jaya, Port Klang, and Kajang.

(Pexels pic) PETALING JAYA : A religious teacher was sentenced to 26 years in prison and five strokes of the rotan by the sessions court in Lahad Datu on two counts of raping a child last August. Judge Suhaila Selaq handed down the sentence after Basry Asang, 49, pleaded guilty to the two charges, Berita Harian reported. On the first charge, Basry was accused of raping an 11-year-old girl at a house in Lahad Datu between 1pm and 3pm on Aug 18, 2024. On the second charge, he was accused of repeating the offence at the same location and time the following day. Suhaila sentenced the accused to 13 years in prison and two strokes of the rotan on the first charge, and another 13 years and three strokes on the second charge. She ordered the prison sentences to run consecutively, starting from the date of the accused's arrest on Aug 20, 2024. Deputy public prosecutor Ng Juhn Tao had asked the court to impose a heavy sentence, citing the seriousness of the offence, which he said showed a complete disregard for human dignity. He said the accused had violated the victim's privacy and sanctity, and brought shame and humiliation, leaving the victim deeply traumatised. The accused was also ordered to undergo counselling throughout his sentence and to be placed under police supervision for two years after his release.
