PETALING JAYA: The Immigration Department has detained one of their own after he had allegedly brought in foreigners without inspections.
Immigration Department director-general Datuk Zakaria Shaaban, in a statement Friday (March 28), said that the arrest was made at KL International Airport Terminal 2 on March 27 at noon.
