KUALA LUMPUR: Bukit Aman’s integrity and standards compliance department (JIPS) is monitoring investigations into the alleged abuse of power by a senior state police officer.
JIPS director Zamri Yahya said police were looking at the possibility the senior police officer was linked to undesirable characters, including those involved in gambling and smuggling activities.
“We have received many complaints about his alleged involvement with individuals with suspicious backgrounds, for instance being associated with gambling and such in the state.
“Currently, we are monitoring from afar due to the Covid-19 situation and have let the state police carry out the investigation. If there is a need, we will send investigating officers from Bukit Aman to conduct a thorough probe,” he said.
He told reporters this after spending the first day of Hari Raya today observing personnel on duty at a roadblock at the Kota Damansara toll plaza.
Zamri said the outcome of the investigation would be submitted to Inspector-General of Police Acryl Sani Abdullah for further action.
Recently, posts regarding the senior police officer went viral on Facebook claiming that he was the main protector of gambling and smuggling syndicates as well as organised crime in the state. - FMT
