Tiada tangkapan pelarian Rohingya di luar pejabat UNHCR, kata polis KL
Ketua polis KL jelas bahawa kumpulan itu hanya diperiksa bagi tujuan dokumentasi.
Kuala Lumpur Police Chief Fadil Marsus stated that there were no arrests made concerning the group of Rohingya refugees gathered outside the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) office. He emphasized that the group was merely examined for documentation purposes and then transferred to Kuala Lumpur's Immigration Department (IPK).
According to his statement, the Rohingya refugees were only searched and subsequently released. Fadil sought to clarify international media reports alleging that the refugee group was detained after arriving in the capital by bus, following their displacement from their location in Penang. On July 29, Fadil had previously reported that the refugee group was periodically transferred to three designated countries by NGOs and UNHCR.
Earlier, Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim mentioned that Myanmar's government had agreed to re-accept approximately 5,000 Rohingya refugees from Malaysia after diplomatic negotiations between the two nations. As of the end of February, around 126,000 Rohingya refugees were reportedly registered with UNHCR in Malaysia.
