Selangor police chief: Massive operation soon to flush out illegal Africans


KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The Selangor police will launch a massive operation to address the influx of illegal Africans, especially the Nigerians in the state, who are seen as a public concern.

Selangor police chief Comm Datuk Noor Azam Jamaludin said the ongoing operation would be carried out in areas monopolised by foreigners.

“If they have valid documentation then we will release them, but we will take action on those who violate the terms of their visit or student pass and those with expired documents,” he said on Monday (May 27)

He was speaking to reporters after witnessing the handing-over of duties ceremony between outgoing Ampang Jaya district police chief ACP Hamzah Alias and incoming district chief ACP Noor Azmi

Yusoff at the Ampang Jaya district police headquarters.

Asked whether there were foreigners involved in criminal activities such as Macau scams, Comm Noor Azam said: “This does exist. That is undeniable. But we consider all the same. Those who do wrong, we will take action accordingly.” - Bernama
