THE Kuala Lumpur Immigration Department has identified nine illegal immigrant settlements in the federal capital, its director Syamsul Badrin Mohshin said. He said most of the settlements had previously been raided by the department but are found to be occupied again.“The Immigration Department has difficulties in tracing the landlords because the properties are being rented out to many people,” he told reporters at the Kuala Lumpur Immigration Department Raya open house today.
Syamsul said the department is collaborating with the local authorities to investigate the actual status of the areas before taking any further action. “Monitoring and operations will continue to ensure that these illegal settlements can be eradicated. At the same time, locals are reminded not to conspire with the illegal immigrants,” he said. – Bernama, May 10, 2023.
