Berita Harian reported that the raid was conducted by the Selangor police headquarters and the Federal Reserve Unit with assistance from the Selangor Islamic religious department and the Selayang Municipal Council.

Almost the entire area of the business centre on Jalan Desa was sealed off from the public, the report said.

Among the services offered are restaurants, car workshops, thrift shops, printing facilities, supermarkets, bakeries, media service centres, hotels, boutiques and galleries.

Police were seen conducting checks on individuals, including some children, at the location from 8.30am, according to the report.

MPS officers were also seen demolishing illegal structures belonging to GISBH.

On Thursday, police obtained a seven-day remand order against 19 members of the company’s top management, including its chairman and CEO, Nasiruddin Ali.

They are being investigated under Section 32(a) of the Child Act 2001, Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, and Section 14 of the Anti-Trafficking in Persons and Anti-Smuggling of Migrants (Amendment) Act 2022.

On Sept 11, police rescued 402 children from 20 welfare homes in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan which the authorities had linked to GISBH. They also arrested 171 people, including an ustaz and a hostel warden.

According to the police, investigations showed that at least 13 of the children were allegedly sodomised or taught to sexually assault others.

Four people linked to the company have since been charged with numerous offences, including sexual assault.
