Laws of Malaysia
Act 593
(j)
any person in the act of committing in his presence a
breach of the peace; or
(k)
any person subject to the supervision of the police who
fails to comply with the requirements of section 296.
(2) Nothing in this section shall be held to limit or to modify
the operation of any other law empowering a police officer or
penghulu to arrest without a warrant.
(3) If any person is arrested without warrant in any component
territory of Malaysia (which expression shall in this subsection
have the same meaning as in the Warrants and Summonses (Special
Provisions) Act 1965 [Act 6 of 1965]) for an offence alleged
to have been committed in any other component territory of
Malaysia, the provisions of the Warrants and Summonses (Special
Provisions) Act 1965, shall, so far as they may be appropriate
and with any necessary modifications, apply for the purposes of
the custody, transfer, release on bail and appearance before the
appropriate Court in the other component territory of Malaysia
of that person as if he had been arrested under a warrant issued
by a Magistrate in the last-mentioned component territory.
Refusal to give name and residence
24. (1) When any person in the presence of a police officer or
penghulu commits or is accused of committing a non-seizable
offence and refuses on the demand of a police officer or penghulu
to give his name and residence or gives a name or residence
which the officer has reason to believe to be false, he may be
arrested by that police officer or penghulu in order that his name
or residence may be ascertained, and he shall, within twentyfour hours of the arrest, exclusive of the time necessary for the
journey, be taken before the nearest Magistrate unless before that
time his true name and residence are ascertained, in which case
he shall be immediately released on his executing a bond for his
appearance before a Magistrate if so required.
(2) When any person is thus taken before a Magistrate, the
Magistrate may either require him to execute a bond, with or
without a surety, for his appearance before a Magistrate if so
required, or may order him to be detained in custody until he
can be tried.
