The Selangor Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency received a tip-off that a vessel had departed Tanjung Balai, Asahan, Sumatra heading for Selangor at 9pm on Monday.
"At about 12.20am the MMEA's ocean monitoring system in Klang detected the vessel moving from Permatang Sedepa to Morib," said Selangor MMEA director Kapten Maritim Rosli Kassim in a statement. Aided by a Navy vessel, an MMEA enforcement boat approached the vessel, KM Sinar Utama, at 2am on Tuesday."The two vessels flanked it and gave chase to prevent the boat and its 40 illegal immigrants from docking on the beach", said Kapt Rosli."Preventing attempts of sneaking in illegal immigrants into the country via sea is a priority for MMEA," said Kapt Rosli, adding that the agency was conducting routine monitoring around the clock.
