ALOR SETAR: Eight Indian nationals who wanted to go to Kuala Lumpur to do preaching work were denied entry into the country via the Immigration, Customs, Quarantine and Security (ICQS) complex at Bukit Kayu Hitam, near here, yesterday.

Kedah Immigration Department director Mohamad Yusri Hashim said the men, aged between 40 and 67, were detained at 12.15pm.

“All of them were from Chennai, India. Besides preaching they were also seeking donations to buy flight tickets back to their hometown,” he said in a statement today.
