Bukit Aman: Many complaints lodged against cops for inaction on drugs, gambling

 


The police Department of Integrity and Compliance Standards (JIPS) has received many complaints from the public on the force not discharging their responsibilities as law enforcers. 

Bukit Aman JIPS director Zamri Yahya said the cases that were allegedly not taken action on included those against drug trafficking and gambling syndicates, despite reports lodged.

He said there were complaints of police chiefs not taking action over reports lodged by the public and allowed the crime to happen in their respective areas.

There are claims of district police chiefs who conspired with drug trafficking and gambling syndicates, and getting rewards for that, but when checked, no reports (on drug trafficking and illegal gambling) were lodged in the affected areas, he told Bernama.

He added that the issue of misconduct and integrity among members of the police force continues to be raised by the public, despite many disciplinary actions taken against the offenders since 1986.

Meanwhile, Bukit Aman Narcotics Criminal Investigation director Razarudin Husain said the department would not compromise with any officers and personnel who associate themselves with drug syndicates.

"I cannot deny that there are police officers involved in selling ketum... we have received reports on this matter and the individuals concerned will be charged in court,” he said.
