IGP Ismail Omar: Wake Up And Do The Right Thing!
Din Merican
Some weeks back I mentioned that I would be writing about the plight of the six rank and file policemen who had discharged their police duties in collating intelligence report admirably without fear or favour. They did so notwithstanding that the trail of crimes was leading them to the doorstep of their then boss, IGP Musa Hassan. They did that at their own peril. In the end they were charged for trying to “topple” Musa Hassan.
Good Men have been victimised
They were brave to do what they did because they believed that they worked for Polis DiRaja Malaysia (PDRM) and not for Musa Hassan. They believed that they would be protected by their own Force. They were mistaken. Despite being seasoned police operatives, they were naïve. And they paid a very heavy price. Until today their cases are not over. Those who have been acquitted are now facing appeals by the A-G Chambers. Until the present time they cannot take any permanent job as they have been suspended from active service.
Their plight has now been highlighted in Parliament by the MP of Bakri, YB Er Teck Hwa. See YB Er’s letter as posted on Friday March 18, by Raja Petra Kamarudin (RPK) in his article “The Unholy Trinity Revisited” (see link http://www.malaysia-today.net/mtcolumns/38872):
