A man on April 10 became the first person to be arrested by the Malaysian authorities for filling his Singapore-registered car with subsidised RON95 petrol in Johor, following a ban that applies to foreign-registered vehicles, according to media reports.

Johor Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN) director Lilis Saslinda Pornomo said the man, who is in his 50s, was detained during an enforcement operation at a petrol station in Johor Bahru at 10pm.

“Initial investigations confirmed that the transaction involved RON95 petrol,” she said in a statement, as reported by the Malaysian media.
