IPOH – Thirty-one police personnel involved in Macau Scams and online gambling activities will face severe punishment soon.
Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador said results of investigations concerning the men have been submitted to the Police Force Commission (SPP) for further action.
He said they were previously suspected of being involved in the Macau Scam syndicate organised by Zaidi Kanapiah, better known as Addy Kanna, and Goh Leong Yeong, or Alvin Goh.
“The Integrity and Standard Compliance Department has already completed the investigations and submitted the paper to SPP, chaired by Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin.
“This is because we view the offence as very serious, and of interest to the people. Hence, as the inspector-general of police, I have taken it to the top to be tried as fairly as possible,” he said.
He said this at a press conference on the PDRM Orang Asli Constable Basic Course Series 1/2020 closing ceremony at the Main Shooting Range, General Operations Force (GOF) Northern Brigade, Hulu Kinta, near here, today. – Bernama, March 1, 2021
