Terror suspect still here, says immigration official
Suspected terrorist Mohd Iqbal Abdul Rahman was still being held at the Kuala Lumpur Immigration Department headquarters in Damansara, said an official today.

At press time, Kuala Lumpur Immigration Department public relations officer Ahmad Shukri told malaysiakini that Mohd Iqbal was still in custody here and awaiting deportation.
"He is still here (in Damansara depot) until the process to deport him is finalised," he said but could not confirm when the deportation will be carried out.
