JOHOR BAHRU: Johor police have refuted claims of an increase in crime after the reopening of the Malaysia-Singapore border, as the crime index is under control with no increase reflected.
Johor Criminal Investigation Department chief SAC Shahurinain Jais said his team through Operasi Lejang, which was implemented in the state on March 27, had successfully reduced the crime rate especially those involving property.
"We have detected a fake statement on social media regarding the possible increase in crime after the Malaysia-Singapore border reopening. Johor police would like to confirm that the statement is false. The country entered the transition to the endemic phase beginning April 1 with some leeway granted, including the opening of national borders and allowing business premises to operate according to the duration allowed in their respective business licences.
