Selangor Immigration Director Khairrul Aminus Kamaruddin said the operation involved 13 officers from the Intelligence and Special Operations Unit of Selangor JIM, led by Mohamed Firdaus Mohamed Abbu Bakar.
“We found double-layered iron doors and several hidden exits on the upper floor, making it difficult for our team to enter. We sought help from the Bandar Puteri Fire Station to break down the doors, which were believed to be locked from the inside,” he said.
Once the fire department gained access, the team successfully secured the premises and detained a total of 75 individuals, all of whom were inspected .

In addition to the arrests, three witness summonses were issued, though no employers were detained during the operation.
