Malaysian Policemen Arrested for Allegedly Extorting RM2 Million from Vanuatu Citizen
Twelve Malaysian policemen have been arrested for allegedly extorting RM2 million from a Vanuatu citizen.
The victim paid US$140,000 (RM560,000) to the suspects before lodging a report at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters.
The case is similar to an incident in February when a group of Chinese nationals alleged they were robbed of 50,000 units of Tether cryptocurrency by policemen in Kajang.
Dang Wangi police chief Assistant Commissioner Sazalee Adam confirmed the arrests.
