Any Israelis found in Malaysia will be immediately deported: PM
Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has said any Israelis found entering the country will be immediately deported, as authorities investigate reports that Israelis used dual citizenship documents to enter the southern state of Johor.
"We are investigating. We do not allow it. If there is, action must be taken. Because we do not recognize them (Israel), they will be deported immediately," Ibrahim said on Wednesday.
He made the remarks following reports that an Israeli holding dual passports had managed to enter Johor.
The PM said relevant government agencies were investigating reports of Israelis entering Malaysia by using dual citizenship documents.
The Johor government urged the Home Ministry and relevant agencies to investigate the operation of Network School in Forest City, which was alleged to involve Israelis.
Malaysia, a staunch supporter of the Palestinian cause, does not recognize Israel and bars Israeli passport holders from entering the country.
A number of countries, including Indonesia, Pakistan, Algeria, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and others, do not recognize Israel and maintain no diplomatic relations with the regime.
