Immigration D-G: Warning system activated at two immigration detention depots following Sungai Bakap incident

PUTRAJAYA, April 20 — The warning system at the Immigration Detention Depots in Bidor, Perak and Beranang, Selangor have been activated to ensure the incident at Sungai Bakap Immigration Detention Depot did not recur.

“All commandants have contacted the nearest police stations and activated the warning system as we do not want the incident to inspire copycats at other centres,” he told reporters here today. Khairul Dzaimee however clarified that the Sungai Bakap depot was a former PLKN camp and it is used to place refugees who are Covid-19 positive.

Commenting on allegations of deaths at the depot which sparked tension among the refugees, Khairul Dzaimee said there was one death due to sickness but it was not related to the incident.In this regard, he said police, the Immigration Department, Rela and members of the public are tracking down the remaining escapees still at large.
