'Home Ministry sec-gen also interferes with police'




After accusing Home Minister Hishammudin Hussein of meddling with police affairs, former inspector-general of police (IGP) Musa Hassan today made the same allegation against Home Ministry secretary-general Abdul Rahim Mohamad Radzi.

NONEWithout naming Abdul Rahim, Musa(right in photo)claimed that the ministry secretary-general has given direct instructions to certain police officers, creating confusion within the police force as to whose order should be followed.

"The secretary-general of the Home Ministry is issuing instructions to the police officers and telling them to report back to him.

"These people complain to me. They are confused," Musa told a press conference at a hotel in Petaling Jaya, which was called by newly-established NGO MyWatch, in which Musa is the patron.

Asked which secretary-general he was referring to, Musa replied, "the current (secretary-general)."

Musa last month accused Hishammuddin of interfering in the police affairs and giving instructions to junior police officers and a district police chief when he (Musa) was inspector-general.
No response from the government
Musa noted that the government has not made any response to his allegations against Hishammuddin and that attempts by MyWatch to meet with the current IGP Ismail Omar on the matter have not been entertained either.

“I want to know the government’s response, but the IGP is very quiet... The IGP can discuss this with us, but he refuses to meet us and treats us like the enemy,” said Musa.

He also made a number of suggestions on improving the police force, such as the redeployment of manpower.

He said he had suggested, during his tenure as IGP, that the task of monitoring politics and politicians by the Special Branch be transferred to the Prime Minister's Department, but there was no follow-up on this.

Musa reiterated that his recent criticism against the police force and the government was not out of any personal grudge or disgruntlement because his contract as IGP was not extended in 2010.

He also said that he never demanding to be appointed as a special envoy to Brunei. It was an offer from the government, which he turned down.

NONEInstead, he accepted an offer, from a friend, to lecture at the Mara University of Technology (UiTM).

MyWatch adviser S Gobikrishnan (right), who was present at the press conference, said the NGO is neutral and not linked to PKR, although he and MyWatch chairperson R Sri Sanjeevan are PKR leaders.

“I can be a member of PKR, but MyWatch is neutral,” said Gobikrishnan.

He also announced that MyWatch would be expanding to state and district levels to assist the people to tackle crimes, adding that the NGO has obtained positive feedback from the people since its establishment.
