PUTRAJAYA: The MACC has uncovered a serious breach of security at the Perlis-Thailand border, believed to be due to corruption involving some border security personnel.

Its chief commissioner Latheefa Koya said the anti-graft agency had obtained security tapes showing such activity, as well as smuggling, from 2017 up to May this year.
