Hadi
Hadi, a British tourist, found himself in a troubling situation while vacationing in Penang, Malaysia, after a parking dispute led to his arrest for damaging a barrier. On December 7, he attempted to pay for parking but faced issues with the payment machine, leading to frustration. After a failed resolution with parking officials, he manually lifted the barrier, which resulted in his arrest two days later. Despite reaching a court settlement, Hadi's passport was retained by authorities, preventing him from leaving the country. This incident has profoundly impacted Hadi and his wife Lucy's plans to relocate to Malaysia, with Hadi describing his detention as inhumane. To secure his release, Lucy sought legal assistance and incurred significant expenses, although Hadi still faces further court proceedings in February.
