Police have listed over one hundred suspects to be detained under the new amendments to the Prevention of Crime Act, inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar announced today.
The police, he said, are looking forward for the amendments to be gazetted, hopefully within the next few weeks.
The amendments, among others, allow for detention without trial for up to two years at a time.
When asked if the list comprises over a dozen, or over a hundred names, Khalid replied, "more than that".
Meanwhile, under the current PCA, the IGP further said 41 suspects had been detained for alleged involvement in illegal syndicates.
He added that police will also come up with a new series of Ops Cantas, initially launch to tackle gangsterism and violent crimes, which would see the use of new and tougher tactics by the law enforcement.
