Khalid said both men were believed to have been recruited by Muhammad Wanndy Mohamad Jedi to join Daish militants in Syria.
Police have detained two men, believed to be planning to join Daish militants in Syria, Inspector general of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar.
He said the two men were detained at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Sepang after they were deported by the Turkish authorities when they were trying to enter Syria.
"To fool the authorities, the suspects had left from Butterworth, Penang to Bangkok by train on Oct 23 before boarding a plane to Abu Dhabi-Istanbul," he said in a statement today.
"The arrests were possible due to intelligence and information sharing between the Special Force and Turkish authorities. Both the men were detained by the Turkish authorities on Oct 28 as soon as they landed at Istanbul and were deported the next day," he added.
Khalid said both men were believed to have been recruited by Muhammad Wanndy Mohamad Jedi to join Daish militants in Syria.
Muhammad Wanndy, a Malaysian, is actively recruiting new members to join the militant group.
He is also believed to have channeled funds for the two men including their flight tickets.
