KUALA LUMPUR: A Bangladeshi clothing factory owner and 45 foreign workers were detained following several raids in Ampang. Immigration director-general Datuk Khairul Dzaimee Daud said investigations showed that the suspect used forged work permits for foreign workers obtained through the ID-Hack syndicate to establish a company here. Khairul Dzaimee said the suspect's illegal business has led to RM700,000 losses in foreign workers' levy for the government. Some of them even owned forged permits, which were produced by the ID-Hack syndicate," he said. We will step up efforts to track down the remaining work permits issued by the ID-Hack syndicate," he added.
