AKPS probes allegations of 'phantom travel' syndicate at KLIA


PUTRAJAYA: The Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) is conducting an investigation into allegations of "phantom travel" syndicate activities at the KL International Airport (KLIA).

AKPS, in a statement Tuesday (June 24), announced that the investigation is looking into the involvement of officers who are in cahoots with a syndicate that uses a modus operandi of not recording the movements of visitors entering the country at the entry points and charging a certain fee to enable travellers, especially civil servants, to avoid their movements being tracked by their employers.
