SEPANG: The first batch of 19 Malaysians students out of the 104 who were to be deported from Egypt last Monday, has arrived in Malaysia today.

After more than eight hours, 126 students were arrested for not owning student visas. It was reported previously that Mohd Husaini Zainuddin, the second secretary at the Malaysian Embassy in Cairo, had said the students aged between 10 and 23, were held for not having valid student visas.
