IGP wants his men to come forw
KUALA LUMPUR: Whistle-blowers step forward – that is the call of the new Inspector-General of Police as he intensifies his efforts to clamp down on corruption and abuse of power.
Tan Sri Musa Hassan welcomes whistle-blowers, including those from within the police force, to join in his fight against graft.
“If you have concrete evidence against any police officer, even your superior, who abuses his power or is corrupt, you can come and see me. I can guarantee protection of the informant,” he said.
“The public can give me information about my officers and men, while my men can also see me if they have information on corrupt practices in the force.
“I will investigate and if there is evidence we will either charge them or hand the cases to the Anti-Corruption Agency,” he told The Star.
Musa said he allowed whistle-blowers in the force as he was sincere in wanting to rid the force of bad hats.
He said there was no room for such people, as he wanted only committed and responsible officers and men with integrity in the force.
He said he reminded all state police chiefs and OCPDs who attended his maiden mandate speech last Wednesday at the senior police officers college in Cheras here to set a good example to their men.
“We have been entrusted to uphold the law and as such we must be committed and courteous and follow the rules.
“Everyone is watching us and one of the reasons that the people want the Independent Police Complaints on Misconduct Commission (IPCMC) is alleged corrupt practices and abuse of power.
“We must change and prove them wrong while at the same time render the IPCMC a redundant body,” he added.
Musa said every one of his men was equal and important to him and that he was willing to meet and listen to them.
“I have also asked my Public Affairs Department in Bukit Aman to create an interactive website for complaints and suggestions.
“We want to improve ourselves, especially our services to the public, and we hope to do it with the help of everyone,” he said, while urging the public to cooperate.
Whistle-blowers can call the IGP at 03-22626222 or write to: Inspector-General of Police, Royal Malaysian Police Headquarters, Bukit Aman, P.O. Box 5000, Kuala Lumpur.
