MACC Deputy Chief Commissioner (Operations), Datuk Seri Ahmad Khusairi Yahaya said the three suspects were believed to be in cahoots with a counter-setting syndicate where they allegedly accepted bribes in return for facilitating the entry of foreign nationals into the country without following the prescribed procedures.
He said Op Rentas had been carried out simultaneously in four states by the MACC Intelligence Division since last Tuesday. - September 15, 2025
