ISKANDAR PUTERI: Police issued 75 summonses and seized 31 motorcycles in an operation at the Malaysia-Singapore Second Link (Linkedua) early this morning after identifying illegal racing hotspots where motorcyclists would perform dangerous stunts and disturb public order.
In a dawn operation at the Malaysia-Singapore Second Link, commonly referred to as Linkedua, Malaysian police clamped down on illegal racing activities and issued 75 summonses. Acting district police chief superintendent Saifullah Jaya disclosed that 50 motorcyclists and pillon riders were detained during the early morning raid, lasting from 1am to 4am.
