Bangladesh ready to help in probe into militant network
PETALING JAYA: Bangladesh has offered to help in any investigations after the arrest of 36 of its nationals over their alleged involvement in a radical militant network. In a statement Saturday (July 5), the Bangladesh Foreign Ministry said its government is closely monitoring developments and its High Commission in Kuala Lumpur is in close communication with the relevant Malaysian authorities. The ministry reiterates its firm stand against all forms of terrorism, violent extremism and militancy, while it remains ready to extend full cooperation to the Malaysian authorities in the matter. "The Bangladesh High Commission extends any necessary support to expatriate Bangladeshis wherever needed." Following the arrests, the Bangladesh Foreign Ministry also said its High Commission in Kuala Lumpur had immediately engaged with the relevant Malaysian authorities and formally requested the identities of the individuals and information regarding the allegations against them. It acknowledged that out of those arrested, five have been charged in Malaysian courts. "The rest are in the process of either further investigation or deportation." On Friday (July 4), Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Mohd Khalid Ismail said a recently dismantled Bangladeshi militant group was found collecting funds to support Islamic State (IS) cells in Syria and Bangladesh. He revealed that intelligence gathering and investigations by the Special Branch Counter Terrorism Division (E8) found that the group had amassed funds for IS activities in these countries.

Reckless p-hailing rider causes crash, flees scene
ISN'T it frustrating when you're involved in a road accident that was not your fault—only for the person responsible for it to flee the scene? A recent dashcam video shared on Reddit sparked outrage after showing how one p-hailing rider's reckless lane change caused a chain reaction crash involving two cars. In the footage, the rider can be seen swerving unexpectedly into another lane at a road split, startling a car driver who then collided with a vehicle ahead that was preparing to turn left. Screams can be heard from within the car as the chaos unfolds, but the rider simply sped off, leaving the scene without a second thought. Netizens did not hold back in the comments, criticising the growing trend of irresponsible behaviour among some food delivery riders. Many noted that such dangerous riding habits often go unchecked, putting other road users at serious risk. 'Imagine explaining this in court without the footage. Poor driver,' one user commented, stressing the necessity of installing dashcam. The incident has reignited conversations about road safety, accountability, and the urgent need for better regulation and training among p-hailing riders, especially as their numbers continue to rise on Malaysian roads.

Immigration busts syndicate exploiting senior citizens for fake marriages
KUALA LUMPUR: A syndicate that exploited senior citizens for marriage arrangements with foreigners has been dismantled by the Immigration Department following a special operation conducted in Putrajaya last Thursday. Its director-general, Datuk Zakaria Shaaban, said the operation, which began at 9.19am, was carried out following two weeks of intelligence gathering by the Intelligence and Special Operations Division based at Immigration headquarters in Putrajaya. He said five Malaysian men, aged between 30 and 66, were arrested during the raid. "Four of them are believed to be the main masterminds of the syndicate, while one acted as an intermediary," he said in a statement today. Among the items seized during the operation were six Malaysian passports, 22 Chinese passports, seven Bangladeshi passports, three Indonesian passports, two Vietnamese passports, one Myanmar passport, and one Macau passport. Also confiscated were a laptop, two printers, two backpacks, RM3,070 in cash, and two vehicles, a Perodua Bezza and a Honda CR-V, believed to have been used by the syndicate. "In addition, 26 folders containing documents from the department and the National Registration Department (JPN) were also seized," he added. Zakaria said the syndicate is believed to have been offering immigration-related services, such as applications under the category of "foreign spouse of a Malaysian citizen", as well as JPN applications for marriages between Malaysians and foreign nationals. The syndicate is believed to have been in operation for about a year. "Its modus operandi involved targeting local senior citizens in the Klang Valley who were seeking to marry foreign nationals, charging between RM50 and RM500 for each application," he said. All five suspects were detained on suspicion of committing offences under the Passport Act 1966 and were taken to the Immigration Office in Putrajaya for further action. Zakaria added that the department remains committed to strengthening enforcement efforts in line with the Madani Government's emphasis on integrity in governance and national security.
