Uniformed cops must be present during searches

Federal CID director Comm Datuk Seri Abd Jalil Hassan
PETALING JAYA: Bukit Aman has issued a directive that plainclothes personnel making visits for investigations or searches must be accompanied by uniformed police personnel.
Federal CID director Comm Datuk Seri Abd Jalil Hassan said the directive was issued to remove any doubts of owners or caretakers to the identity of the investigating policemen who visited their premises.
“The raiding officer can also furnish the premises’ owner or caretaker with the number of the nearest police station to verify the policemen’s identities if they are still doubtful, ” he said yesterday.
The issue was brought to light after a video of several plainclothes policemen attempting to check an apartment in George Town, Penang, went viral.
