KUALA LUMPUR: Sixteen foreign nationals and a local man were detained in two separate special operations in Johor earlier this week, uncovering abuse of immigration passes and manipulation of the online application system for foreign domestic helpers.
Immigration director-general Datuk Zakaria Shaaban said the operations, carried out on March 2 and 3, were conducted by the department’s Intelligence and Special Operations Division from its Putrajaya headquarters in collaboration with the Johor Immigration Department.
