A Chinese woman has been arrested at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) after allegedly assaulting a female immigration officer. The incident took place at approximately 7:40 p.m. on August 13 at the airport's departure counter. The woman, who was traveling with a man and two children, was stopped for a routine inspection after officers from the Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) discovered that the group had no official records of entry into the country. The officers then referred the matter to a supervisor for further verification.

According to a statement from the AKPS, the woman became agitated and verbally abusive when she was asked to step aside to allow other passengers to pass while the checks were being conducted. Witnesses and reports from the Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) allege that the woman then grabbed the female officer's headscarf (tudung) and forcefully pushed her head against a pillar in front of the counter. A brief scuffle ensued, and the woman reportedly refused to calm down despite repeated instructions.

AKPS enforcement officers called in the Aviation Security (AVSEC) team to help manage the situation and the woman was eventually detained and handed over to the police for investigation. The officer suffered minor injuries from the assault, including swelling around her left eye, a headache, and body aches. She was taken to Cyberjaya Hospital for treatment and a medical report.

A police report was filed, and the suspect is now in police custody. She is being investigated under several sections of the Penal Code, including Section 186 for obstructing a public servant, Section 332 for causing hurt to a public servant, and Section 353 for using criminal force to deter a public servant from their duties.

The incident has also been condemned by the Immigration Services Union of Peninsular Malaysia (KPISM), which stated that such acts challenge Malaysian sovereignty and that tourists must respect the laws of the countries they visit. The union is providing welfare and legal assistance to the officer and has called for a comprehensive investigation and prosecution without compromise. The KPISM also urged the government to consider installing CCTV at every immigration counter to enhance monitoring and ensure the safety of both officers and travelers.
