Najib: IGP will probe RM34m case
KUALA LUMPUR: The RM34mil assets declared by a senior police officer that was disclosed in the Royal Commission Report came as a huge surprise to the Government.
Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said that although no name was mentioned, he was certain the police would look into the case.
“It’s up to the police to take action. I believe the Inspector-General of Police will give it due attention,” he told reporters yesterday after presenting awards of excellence to 100 personnel from the Defence Ministry.
The commission stated in its report released on Monday that a retired policeman had informed them that a senior police officer made an asset declaration totalling RM34mil and that many other officers too had assets several times above their known income.
When it was put to the deputy prime minister that a senior police officer amassing so much money would not inspire confidence in the force, Najib replied: “I know. Action has to be taken in terms of finding out where the wealth came from. I’m sure the IGP will do this.”
On the 125 recommendations made by the commission, he said the task force chaired by the prime minister would study all the proposals.
“For now, we do not want to say what can and cannot be accepted by the Government,” he said.
He added that relevant agencies, such as the Public Services Department and the Finance Ministry, would be called in to study the recommendations.
“The Cabinet agreed in a recent meeting that action should be taken on proposals that could be implemented fast such as logistics, which would improve efficiency in the police force,” he said.
Najib said that this was something that would boost the morale of the police and the people’s confidence in the force.
This would include increasing the number of patrol cars, communications sets and housing quarters, and upgrading police stations.
In Kangar, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Mohd Radzi Sheikh Ahmad said the Government was willing to amend any legislation to help the police become a revitalised, modern, effective and trustworthy force,
He said this would include shortening the period of detention for remand and Internal Security Act (ISA) cases as recommended in the Royal Commission Report.
“Any amendment which can help the police carry out their duties diligently is worth supporting,” Radzi told a press conference here.
However, he said, the reduction of the detention period for ISA detainees needed to be studied by the Cabinet task force.
He also said the Government would have to spend more on the police force, to meet their needs in such areas as housing, salary, equipment, training, knowledge and motivation.
Radzi also supported the call to appoint two Deputy Inspector-Generals of Police to alleviate the burden of managing the force.
