KUALA LUMPUR: Police arrested a 53-year-old man for impersonating an Immigration officer with the title 'Datuk Seri' to cheat employers of foreign workers.
Dang Wangi OCPD Asst Comm Zainol Samah said the man was arrested in Jalan Bukit Bintang area at about 2pm on May 31.
He said the suspect would put on a “Home Ministry jacket” and show fake Immigration Department name card carrying the name Datuk Seri Chong Kok Man.
He said the suspect claimed to be able to renew working permits and would charge the employers between RM600 and RM2,000.
ACP Zainol said the suspect would meet the victims near the Putrajaya Immigration office or in Bukit Bintang to collect the money and disappear.
“We believe the suspect has been active for the past two years," he told a press conference on Friday.
ACP Zainol said the suspect was arrested about 24 years ago for 10 similar cases and sentenced to a year in prison.
He urged the victims to lodge reports.
In a separate case, ACP Zainol said police arrested four suspects, including a woman, after a Bangladesh national was robbed.
He said the victim was walking along Jalan Silang at about 10am on May 31 when four suspects approached him.
One of the suspects held the victim by his shirt and the others took RM500 and his handphone from his pockets.
ACP Zainol said after receiving a report from the victim, police managed to arrest the four suspects, aged in their 20s and 30s, some 45 minutes later in Pasar Seni.
He said the suspects have previous criminal records for robberies and drugs.

During the press conference, ACP Zainol also gave Certificates of Appreciation to six personnel from the motorcycle patrol unit (URB) for solving three robbery cases in the Dang Wangi district.
