KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is reportedly all set to request Pakistan for the extradition of a terror suspect who was detained by the Pakistani security forces last week for trying to smuggle firearms and ammunition from Pakistan. While thanking Pakistan’s security authorities for informing Malaysia about the arrest, the deputy prime minister said that the Malaysian police were working with the Interpol to obtain more details about the arrest. He added that this matter will not be taken lightly and is something that will be monitored very closely by the Malaysian authorities. Earlier, Malaysian Police Chief Mohamad Fuzi Harun stated a possibility of sending its police officers to Pakistan or repatriating the apprehended smuggler. “His offence is very serious and we must discuss the matter further with our Pakistani counterparts,” Harun was quoted as saying.
