Twenty-eight suspects including 11 Sri Lankans were arrested in Malaysia for withdrawing cash from foreign banks using counterfeit credit cards, the Divaina newspaper has reported.
With the help of Interpol, the Malaysian and Canadian police, after a joint investigation, made these arrests, after a large number of secret withdrawals from automatic teller machines in Malaysia since August 2012.
Four Indians, nine Canadians, and four Malaysians were among the gang in addition to the Sri Lankans, according to media reports.
