In the post, the Singaporean claimed that the police tried to convince him that he was in violation of multiple rules.
These rules include not possessing a Malaysian driving license, having no visa to enter Kuala Lumpur, and carrying a print-out of his NRIC instead of his passport.
The Singaporean was also told that he was driving in the opposite direction.
The video caption continued that the Singaporean was allegedly advised to “treat” the Malaysian police to avoid being arrested and fined.

“You could see (the Malaysian police) told me to throw the money into the car and ensure that no one is watching.
“My hand should not be in the car. Hence, I pulled my hand away quickly (in the video),” said the video caption at the end.
As the car pulled away, the police car’s licence plate became visible in the video.
