Khalid: Daughter’s firearms firm obtained licence before I became IGP

Inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar has clarified that a firearms company belonging to his daughter obtained its business licence even before he helmed the police force.

He also revealed that he had barred his daughter from bidding for tenders linked to the government or police.

“They obtained their licence to operate and repair firearms before I became police chief.

“I also forbade them to bid for government and police tenders, so they did not get any tenders to supply weapons from the government or the police,” Khalid told reporters in Bangi today.

He was responding to an article by whistleblower site Sarawak Report, which claimed that Khalid’s second daughter, Juwiza, as well as his brother in-law Mohd Isa Hussin are owners of Nilai Arms & Ammunition (NAA).
