Chinese national assaults KLIA immigration officer
A CHINESE national was arrested at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 yesterday for behaving aggressively and injuring an immigration officer during departure checks. According to Bernama, the incident occurred at around 7.40pm where the woman alongside a man and two children were at the immigration counter. The officer discovered that they had no entry records and referred the case to a supervisor for further review. A statement issued by the Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) explained that the suspect became upset when she was told to allow other passengers to proceed while her documents were being examined. The Chinese national then allegedly shouted abusive words at the officer, yanked her headscarf and pushed her head against a pillar in front of the counter. 'A minor scuffle broke out, and the suspect refused to calm down despite being instructed to do so. AKPS enforcement officers then called in the Aviation Security Team (AVSEC) to control the situation,' it said. The incident left the officer with swelling in her left eye, a headache on the right side of her head and body aches. She was then sent to Cyberjaya Hospital for treatment and to obtain a medical report. A police report has been filed and the suspect is currently in police custody for investigation under Section 186 of the Penal Code for obstructing a public servant, Section 332 for causing injury to a public servant and Section 353 for using criminal force against a public servant. AKPS stressed that it will not tolerate any form of violence, abuse or threats against officers on duty and expects the suspect to face appropriate legal action. Meanwhile, the Immigration Services Union Peninsular Malaysia (KPISM) strongly condemned the physical and verbal attack on the female officer. President Ajeet Singh stated that such actions undermine the sovereignty of Malaysian law and reminded tourists that they must respect the laws of any country they visit. 'Immigration officers are the frontline defenders of the nation's sovereignty. Assaulting them while on duty is not only an uncivilised act, but also tarnishes the nation's image and jeopardises security at international entry points,' he said in the statement. —TMR
