Malaysia releases 17 Indonesians
who illegally entered Sebatik
The Indonesian Foreign Ministry confirmed Monday that 17
Indonesians who were reportedly being detained by Malaysian authorities for
illegally crossing into Malaysia have returned to Indonesia.
“They were never detained and they have returned to
Indonesia,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Arrmanatha Nasir told The Jakarta
Post in Jakarta.
According to Nasir, the group returned to Indonesia on
Sunday.
Previously, Malaysian English-language newspaper The Star
reported that the Malaysian Police arrested 17 Indonesians, 14 of whom were
military and police personnel, after they attacked a police station to get to a
suspected killer on Sebatik Island, an island shared by both countries off
Sabah’s southwestern Tawau district on Friday.
Deputy inspector general of police Noor Rashid Ibrahim said
the men violated Section 6 (3) of the 1963 Immigration Act by entering the
country illegally and Section 8 of the 1960 Arms Act for the possession of
firearms without permits.
“These men were all of lower ranks and were there of their
own accord. They were not instructed to bring the suspect back by any
superior," he said as quoted by The Star.
Noor Rashid also confirmed that Malaysian police officers on
Sebatik had arrested a suspect who was apparently wanted by the Indonesian
police in connection with a murder case.
The men had invaded the Wallace Bay police station in
Sebatik, demanding the murder suspect be identified so they could take him
back.
