KUANTAN, May 30 — The police arrested two men at the roadblock after the Bentong toll plaza on the east-bound highway for having a fake police permit allowing inter-state travel to Kelantan, yesterday.
The men, aged 25 and 34, were detained at 6.30pm after the policemen on duty at the roadblock became suspicious upon seeing the permit, said Bentong District Police chief Supt Zaiham (rpt) Zaiham Mohd Kahar today.
“The policemen doubted the authenticity of the stamp and signature of the police chief who allegedly approved the permit and contacted the station. A check revealed there was no such serial number and the station had not received any application from the men,” he said in a statement.
