Inspector-general of police Ismail Omar today said that he has had no indication on the existence of a syndicate issuing MyKad to foreigners.
This is despite several police reports being lodged by PAS on the matter from last year.
“I have no received no reports (on the matter),” he told reporters at the Police Training Centre (Pulapol) today.
On Wednesday, PAS claimed to have cornered the syndicate in action, involving about 240 people suspected to be migrants, in a resort in Bangi.
The political party has lodged police reports on the matter in Salak Tinggi in 2010 and Paya Jaras and Subang earlier this year.
No word on Bersih 2.0 until Suhakam inquiry over
Meanwhile, federal criminal investigation department chief Bakri Zinin refused to comment on police investigations on the Bersih 2.0 rally on July 9.
Bakri (right), who took over the press conference from the IGP who had to rush off, said that this is so that it “does not jeopardise the inquiry conducted by the National Human Rights Commission (Suhakam)”.
“I will not comment on it because it is still under inquiry,” he said of the inquiry into whether police had used excessive force to disperse the rally.
He was also tight-lipped when asked specifically about the findings of molotov cocktails and parangs alongside Bersih 2.0 paraphernalia in the lead-up to the rally.
The police have already expressed their intention to send its officers as witnesses for the inquiry, which began on Oct 11 and has adjourned to Nov 15.
It is unclear how many police personnel will be testifying, with Bakri refusing to divulge this information as well.
Separately, the CID chief could not provide information over investigations into claims of a Christianisation plot in Penang earlier this year.
Penang police had previously questioned several pastors over the May incident, allegedly linked to DAP Jelutong MP Jeff Ooi.
The matter was later passed on to Bukit Aman.
“You have to ask the IGP about that as it involves matters of religious harmony and national security,” he said.
The IGP earlier presented certificates of appreciation to 61 police and military personnel, two from naval officers from the KD Sultan Ismail and a host of others from the royal police force involved in the ‘blue ocean strategy’ move.
The strategy involves collaboration between the police and the armed forces, including the retraining of former armed forces personnel to serve with the police.
“I find this collaboration has been beneficial especially in raising the spirit of the force,” he said.
He added that the effort is expected to save the police force about RM639 million over the next five years through the sharing of training costs.
“It opens up more opportunities to improve in the quality of our service,” he said.
