Factory workers flee as immigration officers conduct enforcement raid

An immigration raid at a door factory triggered a chaotic scene as workers scrambled to flee the premises, leaving several injured in their wake. The enforcement operation saw workers attempt to scale the compound walls in a bid to evade immigration officers conducting the routine check.

Multiple individuals sustained injuries during the scramble to escape, though authorities did not immediately specify the nature or severity of the injuries sustained. Emergency response teams were called to the scene to assist the injured workers.

The raid forms part of ongoing immigration enforcement efforts targeting undocumented or irregular foreign workers in the manufacturing sector. Authorities have intensified such operations in recent months as part of broader compliance initiatives.

Factory management has not issued a statement regarding the incident. Immigration department officials said they were investigating the circumstances surrounding the workers' attempt to flee and the resulting injuries.
