Kota Kinabalu: A 30-year-old Dusun woman lodged a police report Wednesday after discovering that her father had been identified as a Bajau in his MyKad. Rina Alan, from Kg Pinopok in Membakut, lodged the report at the Membakut Police Station at about 10.34am. Based on her report, the information on her 64-year-old father's MyKad was found to be wrong when it labelled him as a Bajau and Muslim, when in fact he is Dusun and a pagan.
