Home Minister Hamzah Zainudin has rejected calls for the representatives from the United Nations High Commissioners for Refugees (UNHCR) here to be granted access to immigration detention depots.

"First, I would like to explain, this is our country. Why do they want access to our immigration depots? Don't we (Immigration) know who we arrested?

"The people we arrested are those who had committed offences under the Immigration Act," said Hamzah in an online press conference from the Home Ministry in Putrajaya today.
