Cops Vs MACC: Police Prevented Anti-Graft Officers From Arresting Sergeant Suspected Of Corruption
'A team of officers from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) were threatened with arrest by a senior police officer over an anti-corruption operation at the Sepang district police headquarters last month.
Selangor deputy CID chief ACP Rusdi Mohd Isa allegedly made the threat over the phone to senior Selangor MACC investigation officer Supt Azeem Hafeez Jamaluddin at the Sepang police headquarters.
In his report made at the Dang Wangi police station on June 24, Azeem said Rusdi told him that he had received instructions from the Selangor chief police officer to detain all MACC officers if they went ahead with the arrest of a police sergeant suspected to be involved in corrupt activities.
In the report, a copy of which was made available to theSun, Azeem also named two other police officers – ASP Ballo Muniappan and Insp Mohd Husny Hussein – as having obstructed him from carrying out his duties and conducting further investigations.
Sources said the incident occurred after MACC officers received a tip-off on a payment of a bribe to some CID officers in Sepang and subsequently set a trap.
"The officers moved in after the bribe was given and arrested the police sergeant, and seized the bribe money.
"They wanted to take the sergeant to their headquarters in Shah Alam for questioning when there was a series of phone calls, during which Rusdi is said to have told Azeem to cease their operations," one source said.'
