PARKING at MRT Maluri has apparently become a little more exciting than anyone asked for, with motorists allegedly being confronted by an unofficial “parking management team” demanding money before they can leave their cars.
According to netizen @BendiTheBagak on X, a group has been illegally collecting parking fees from motorists using the area, turning what should be a simple routine into something resembling a roadside protection racket.
And apparently, the price of this “parking service” comes with its own inflation story too.
The netizen claimed motorists were initially charged RM3 to park their vehicles.
Then it went up to RM5. But the alleged gangsters were reportedly not done.
Ada intel bagi gambar ni kat aku.
Kereta dia tayar kena pecah sebab tak nak bayar parking haram RM5 kpd gangster Hindu India di MRT Maluri.
Depa ingat ni Malaysia bapak depa punya ke? 😡🖕

According to the post, they threatened to raise the fee again to RM7 if motorists reported the matter to the authorities.
Things allegedly became more serious when one driver who refused to pay reportedly returned to find his tyre punctured.
At that point, the RM5 parking fee suddenly looks less like a parking charge and more like an optional insurance premium.
The netizen’s post has understandably raised concerns among other social media users, particularly over the safety of motorists who use the MRT station and the apparent brazenness of those allegedly collecting the money.
Several netizens, for example, pointed out that the police station was actually nearby. So how could such activities go by unnoticed by the authorities?
Netizen @safiq_saf added that these people will use excuses about being discriminated as a minority when they are caught.
Then there was @amirman_ pointing out that the police officers are usually reactive instead of proactive when dealing with such situations.
Also, @amerul27842008 said the land in fact belonged to TNB, and not under the ownership of these dubious parking fee collectors.
Towards this problem, @lemonade1196 further suggested drivers install a dashcam in their car so that evidence could be collected.
Another netizen shared that the situation was getting worse since the squatters at Jalan Peel and Jalan Cochrane were gone.
Ultimately, the issue goes beyond an RM5 parking fee. If motorists are being threatened, intimidated or having their vehicles damaged for refusing to pay, it raises serious concerns about public safety and enforcement.
