Salvigus Photo, 43, was sentenced by the Magistrate’s Court to a prison term of six months and three strokes of cane for entering Brunei illegally.
The defendant was arrested during an Immigration raid of a house at Kampong Sungai Buloh, Jalan Bukit Sibanging, Muara, at 11.17pm on February 13.
When Salvigus was unable to produce his passport, Immigration personnel arrested him for further investigation.
During the investigation, he claimed that he had come to Brunei in 2006 as a visitor. However, the Immigration Database showed no record of his entry in that year or at any other time.
Immigration prosecutor Roslina binti Sapar prosecuted the case, which was presided by Senior Magistrate Haji Nabil Daraina bin Pehin Dato Ustaz Haji Badaruddin.
