Man arrested for selling duty-free liquor illegally
JOHOR BAHRU: A man was arrested for selling duty-free liquor illegally during a raid at a terrace house in Taman Mount Austin here on May 7. South Johor Bahru police chief ACP Raub Selamat said police arrested the man, 36, and seized liquor of various brands worth RM316,595 at about 10.30 am following a public tipoff. 'Liquor was also found in two vehicles, a Toyota Estima and Toyota Vellfire that were using fake license plates to avoid detection by the authorities,' he said in a media conference here today. The police believe that the man was acting alone for the past six months and bought the liquor at a duty-free area in Forest City near Iskandar Puteri before selling it at market prices to grocery stores and acquaintances. Samples will be sent to the Chemistry Department and the Royal Malaysian Customs Department for analysis to determine if the liquor is counterfeit, he said. The suspect, who tested negative for drugs and has no prior criminal record, has been remanded for 14 days from May 8 to facilitate investigations under SEction 135(1)(D) of the Customs Act 1967 and Section 108(3)(F) of the Road Transport Act 1987.

Etihad Airways has a huge business class sale on right now
If you've been dreaming of upgrading your summer travel plans without splurging your entire savings, Etihad Airways has just dropped a limited-time deal that might be hard to ignore. The Abu Dhabi-based airline has launched a business class sale, offering up to 30 percent off fares to a host of seasonal hotspots and new destinations. Running until Wednesday May 8, the sale covers travel between June 1 and September 30, 2025 – prime time for summer holidays, last-minute escapes and slightly smug Instagram posts from airport lounges. Destinations include the airline's newest routes, like Al Alamein (from Dhs3,595), Sochi (Dhs5,995) and Warsaw (Dhs6,995), alongside more established favourites like Mykonos, Santorini and Prague. Even Taipei makes an appearance for those keen on going long-haul with a touch of comfort, priced from Dhs11,995. The timing is no coincidence. Etihad recently revealed its revamped A321LR aircraft at the Arabian Travel Market, bringing some of the luxury usually reserved for its long-haul fleet to shorter regional routes. That means lie-flat business seats and exclusive first class suites on flights that might otherwise have been a cramped economy experience. Business class passengers can expect à la carte meals, spacious seating and lounge access, while first class customers will soon be treated to door-to-door services including chauffeur transfers and personal airport escorts. Sure, it's still Business Class – so it's not exactly budget travel – but with these discounts, it's a rare opportunity to experience a more refined way to fly without the usual eye-watering price tag. And in the summer heat, that extra comfort might just be worth it. Flying away soon?
