BATU PAHAT: An attempt by two men to smuggle about 1,300 exotic birds worth RM100,000 has been foiled by the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) here.
Batu Pahat Maritime Zone director Maritime Comm Mohammad Zaini Zainal said the duo, aged 26 and 37, were arrested at about 1am on Friday (May 30) after MMEA patrol officers intercepted their fibre boat in the waters off Tanjung Labuh.
