I'll throw the book at dirty cops, Johor police chief warns

JOHOR BARU: Misconduct in the ranks will be met with firm action, including being hauled to court, says Johor police chief Comm Datuk M. Kumar (pic).

He said that while every effort had been made to achieve high standards, the actions of a few affected the good name of the police force.

“I am extremely disappointed by several incidents involving criminal misconduct and disciplinary problems among officers and personnel.

“If it is not stopped through effective supervision and monitoring, it will become a cancer that can affect (the police force),” he said during the monthly assembly at state police headquarters here on Thursday (Feb 27).

Comm Kumar said 23 officers and personnel were charged in court last year, while three have been prosecuted so far this year.

“They allegedly committed various criminal offences such as extortion, rape, criminal intimidation, sexual abuse, domestic violence, drug abuse and drug possession.

“Action under Regulation 3C of the Public Officers (Conduct and Discipline) Regulations 1993 (will be taken),” he said, adding that there would be no compromise in such cases.
