The Royal Malaysia Police (RMP) has confirmed receiving a CD related to the shooting incident in Durian Tunggal, Malacca, which was handed over yesterday by a family member of one of the suspects.
Inspector-General of Police Khalid Ismail said the CD is believed to contain an audio recording of a telephone conversation between one of the suspects and his wife before the incident.
He added that to strengthen the investigation further, the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) director formed a special investigation team last Wednesday, led by a senior officer with the rank of senior assistant commissioner, to take over and conduct a comprehensive probe at the Bukit Aman level.
“This step was taken to ensure that every aspect of the investigation is examined systematically, professionally, and without compromise,” he said in a statement today.
Khalid also reaffirmed RMP’s commitment to conducting a thorough and integrity-driven investigation, stressing that the force will not tolerate any form of misconduct.
In this regard, he advised the public not to speculate or disseminate unverified information, which could compromise the integrity of the ongoing investigation.
He also urged anyone with information related to the incident to come forward and contact the hotline at 019-376 4763 to assist efforts in safeguarding public safety and order.
On Nov 24, Malacca police chief Dzulkhairi Mukhtar reportedly said that three criminals, aged 24-29, were shot dead after one of them attacked a police officer with a machete at an oil palm plantation in Durian Tunggal.
The 4.30am incident left a corporal, in his early 30s, seriously injured in his left arm.
All the suspects, believed to be members of the Durian Tunggal Gang, were detected while on their way to rob premises.
The gang had reportedly been active since early 2024 and is linked to 20 cases in Malacca and one case each in Negeri Sembilan and Selangor, causing losses amounting to RM1.35 million.
