KOTA BARU: The Kota Baru Islamic City Municipal Council has uncovered an organised syndicate that brought in Thai beggars to seek alms around the city during Ramadan .

MPKB-BRI enforcement division head Mohd Hakimie Md Salleh said the activity was uncovered through Ops Bersih, an integrated operation conducted with the Social Welfare Department, Kelantan Islamic Religious Affairs Department, Immigration Department, and several media representatives. According to Mohd Hakimie, the syndicate ran in an organised manner, with beggars staying in rented houses throughout Ramadan and begging every day.

"Beggars only get about 30% of what they collect daily, while the remaining 70% goes to the agents managing them. They use various tactics to gain sympathy, like claiming they need money for their children's education or medical treatment," he said.
