The Malaysian Immigration Department raided 19 locations in Janda Baik, detaining 65 foreign nationals for immigration offences.

The operation involved 150 JIM personnel and was conducted following complaints about the influx of foreign nationals.

Offences included lacking valid permits, overstaying, and using false documents, with summons issued to locals suspected of harbouring foreigners.

BENTONG, Oct 21 — The Malaysian Immigration Department (JIM) raided 19 locations around Janda Baik in a Mega Integrated Operation this morning and detained 65 foreign nationals for various immigration offences.

Its deputy director-general (Operations), Datuk Lokman Effendi Ramli, said the operation which began at 10am and covered Kampung Cemeruh, Kampung Ceringin and Kampung Sumsum, was conducted following complaints from residents and media reports about the influx of foreign nationals in the resort area.

As a result of the raids on 19 locations including resorts, farms and construction sites, a total of 278 foreign nationals were inspected and 65 of them were detained on grounds for committing offences under the Immigration Act.

"All those detained, aged between 20 and 54 years, will be taken to the Kemayan Depot for investigation and further action," he said at a press conference here today.

He said that among the identified offences were not having a valid pass or permit to be in Malaysia, violating pass conditions, overstaying, using false travel documents, and other offences that violate the Immigration Act.

Lokman Effendi said the integrated operation involved 150 JIM members from Pahang, Kuala Lummpur and the Putrajaya headquarters, in addition to the cooperation of the Road Transport Department (JPJ) and the National Registration Department (JPN).

He also said that in the raid, JIM also issued summons notices to two locals, namely the resort owner and the plantation owner, to appear and give statements as they were suspected of harbouring foreigners.

"On our part, we hope that Malaysians will be more patriotic and not rent out land or business premises to foreigners, as their influx is due to the existence of supply and demand," he added.

Commenting on enforcement nationwide, he informed that JIM has carried out more than 11,000 operations from January 1 until yesterday.

According to him, during that period, nearly 150,000 foreigners were checked, 41,000 were detained, while more than 45,000 were repatriated to their home countries. — Bernama

马来西亚移民局突击搜查了珍达拜的 19 个地点，拘留了 65 名违反移民法的外国公民。

此次行动出动了 150 名 JIM 人员，起因是接到有关外国公民涌入的投诉。

违法行为包括缺乏有效许可证、逾期居留和使用伪造文件，并对涉嫌窝藏外国人的当地人发出传票。

文冬，10 月 21 日讯——马来西亚移民局（JIM）今天上午在珍达拜附近展开大规模综合行动，突击搜查了 19 个地点，并拘留了 65 名涉嫌违反各种移民规定的外国公民。

其副总监（行动）拿督洛克曼·埃芬迪·拉姆利表示，此次行动于上午 10 点开始，覆盖了甘榜塞梅鲁、甘榜塞林金和甘榜苏姆苏姆，起因是居民投诉和媒体报道度假区涌入大量外国公民。

由于突击检查了包括度假村、农场和建筑工地在内的 19 个地点，共有 278 名外国公民接受了检查，其中 65 人因违反《移民法》而被拘留。

“所有被拘留者，年龄在 20 岁至 54 岁之间，将被带到克马扬拘留中心接受调查和进一步处理，”他今天在此举行的新闻发布会上说。

他表示，已查明的违法行为包括：没有在马来西亚停留的有效通行证或许可证、违反通行证条件、逾期停留、使用虚假旅行证件以及其他违反移民法的违法行为。

洛克曼·埃芬迪表示，此次联合行动涉及来自彭亨州、吉隆坡和布城总部的 150 名 JIM 成员，此外还有陆路交通局 (JPJ) 和国民登记局 (JPN) 的合作。

他还表示，在这次突击行动中，JIM 还向两名当地人，即度假村老板和种植园老板，发出传票，要求他们到场作证，因为他们涉嫌窝藏外国人。

“就我们而言，我们希望马来西亚人能更加爱国，不要将土地或商业场所出租给外国人，因为他们的涌入是由于供需关系造成的，”他补充道。

在谈到全国范围内的执法情况时，他表示，自1月1日至昨天，JIM已开展了超过11000次行动。

据他介绍，在此期间，近15万名外国人接受了检查，4.1万人被拘留，超过4.5万人被遣返回国。——马新社
