Malaysian Man Arrested Using Illegal Sea Route
A man from Malaysia tried to sneak back from Indonesia using a secret boat route.
He did this because he didn't want his first wife to know he had a second wife who was very sick and pregnant.
The man's first wife had his passport, so he couldn't fly.
He was caught by the authorities and admitted it was his first time doing something like this.
He said he only did it because his second wife needed him.
A 46-year-old Malaysian lorry driver was arrested for using an illegal sea route to return from Indonesia.
He took this route to hide his second marriage from his first wife, who holds his passport.
The man admitted his second wife, who is five months pregnant, was critically ill in Indonesia.
This was his first time using an illegal route to avoid suspicion.
He made a long journey with multiple stops after spending 4-5 days in Indonesia.
