JOHOR BARU: The Johor Immigration Department has arrested over 60 foreigners, including four who have been pretending to be beggars in a night market, in a series of operations earlier this week.
“The suspects, which include a man with an amputated leg, were believed to have been gaining public sympathy by pretending to collect money for Tahfiz schools and other religious institutions. “In the same operation, we have also inspected stalls operating at the night market and arrested a Pakistani man for not having a valid pass or permit to be in Malaysia,” he said.
“A total of 72 people were checked during the operation, and 33 were arrested for immigration offences,” he said. “The operation was conducted following complaints we received from the public about foreigners working illegally.
