This will serve a lesson to other police officers - IGP

KUALA LUMPUR -- The recent transfers of the former Gombak District Police Chief and several police officers there were due to their failure to curb gambling activities, said Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun.

He said every State Police Chief and District Police Chief must be held responsible for failing to achieve the targets of their missions.

“I have warned about this (combatting gambling), that gambling activities must be curbed not only in Gombat but throughout the whole country.

“Order upon order have been issued to the State Police Chiefs, District Police Chiefs and the officers assigned to tackle the gambling issue,” he said in a press conference held after a Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) seminar in tackling challenges in modern policing at the Cheras PDRM College here.

Mohamad Fuzi said if they were not serious in tackling the issue of gambling such as was seen in the Gombak District Police Headquarters, he had to take stern action by transferring them to other districts.

“If they continue to allow it (gambling activities) to spread, then we have to take similar action,” he said.

Mohamad Fuzi said there will be more transfers involving officers and policemen connected to this issue in other districts.

“I hope what happened to those who were transferred for failing to curb gambling in their districts will serve as a lesson to other police officers and policemen,” he said.

Mohamad Fuzi said he will be meeting with 157 District Police Chiefs throughout the country next Monday at the Cheras PDRM College to discuss various matters including the gambling issue.

On July 28, PDRM announced the transfers of two senior officials, Gombak District Police Chief ACP Ali Ahmad and the Commandant of the Police Training Centre (Pulapol) in Air Hitam ACP Samsor Maarof.

Also present at the seminar were Deputy Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Noor Rashid Ibrahim and Chairman of the Human Rights Commission Tan Sri Razali Ismail.
