Officers involved in KLIA 'counter-setting' syndicate transferred to other units, says Immigration DG

PORT DICKSON: About 50 enforcement officers of the Malaysian Immigration Department who were arrested by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) last September on suspicion of being involved in the 'counter setting' syndicate have been transferred to other units.

Immigration director-general Datuk Zakaria Shaaban said officers concerned had been transferred from their original assignments and would no longer serve at the entry control counter at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).
