GEORGE TOWN: The Penang Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission detained two enforcement agency officers and a Bangladesh national believed to be involved in arranging entry of foreigners through a special counter route at the Penang International Airport here.

According to sources, the arrest of the two enforcement agency officers was following the arrest of a Bangladeshi man at a hotel in the state at around 9pm on Thursday night. "Based on the initial investigations, the Bangladeshi together with the enforcement agency officer involved had requested RM4,500 from an Indonesian man who arrived by plane via the airport on Sept 22, in return to help him enter the country,” he said.

The MACC detained the Bangladeshi after accepting RM2,000 from the Indonesian man in question, on Thursday.
