What nationalities were most represented among the 200 detained?

Question

Accepted Answer

The detained group’s most represented nationalities were not specified in the available details
Malaysian Immigration authorities detained 200 foreign nationals during a raid at Kuala Lumpur’s Taman Maluri night market, after complaints from residents and two weeks of surveillance. The 200 detainees included 125 men and 75 women from Indonesia, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Vietnam, China, Pakistan and India, but the information provided does not state how many detainees were from each nationality. Because no nationality-by-nationality breakdown is included, it is not possible to determine which nationalities were most represented.
The detainees’ nationalities were listed, but counts by nationality were not given
The authorities said the detained individuals came from seven countries: Indonesia, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Vietnam, China, Pakistan and India. While this confirms the nationalities present among the 200 detainees, it does not provide the number of people from each nationality.
Sex breakdown was provided, but it does not identify nationality dominance
The report stated that 125 men and 75 women were detained. However, it did not connect those numbers to specific nationalities, so the sex totals cannot be used to infer which nationality was most represented.
The operation involved vetted numbers before the 200 detentions
Immigration director Hamsha Injau said officers vetted 500 people in total, consisting of 407 foreign nationals and 93 Malaysians, before detaining 200 individuals. Even with this broader vetting figure, the available details still do not include a nationality breakdown for the 200 detainees.
The enforcement focus described offences, not nationality distribution
Hamsha said officers detected multiple immigration offences, including not possessing valid travel documents, overstaying, abusing social visit passes and breaching the conditions of immigration passes. The enforcement description does not include any data showing which of the listed nationalities accounted for the largest share of the 200 detentions.
