Fahmi Reza to Take the Government to Court over 'Travel Ban'
- Fahmi Reza, a Malaysian political cartoonist, was denied boarding a flight to Singapore at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on June 7, 2025.
- This incident followed his earlier barring from entering Sabah on May 29 and arose amid conflicting statements about an alleged travel ban.
- The police confirmed Fahmi's name was on an internal monitoring list related to an ongoing investigation, but denied imposing a travel ban, attributing the boarding denial to procedural confusion.
- Fahmi expressed frustration over being prevented from traveling, accusing authorities of causing him significant loss of time and money, and revealed his intention to pursue legal action against the government.
- The case has triggered accusations of stifling dissent and calls for government accountability, while authorities review the procedures to prevent similar issues.
