Malaysia detains seven Afghans for using fake visas
Malaysian border authorities have apprehended seven Afghan nationals for attempting to enter the country with counterfeit visas.
According to a statement released by the Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS), the individuals were intercepted at Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1 in two separate incidents—one on Sunday morning and another on Tuesday night.
“Acting on a tip-off, AKPS personnel at KLIA inspected their documents,” the statement said.
Initial investigations revealed that the group—comprising five adults and two minors—were carrying forged visas believed to have originated from Uzbekistan.
The individuals reportedly claimed they had fled from Iran before attempting to enter Malaysia as their final destination.
