SHAH ALAM: The public cannot stop the police from inspecting their vehicles if there is suspicion that an offence has or is being committed, Deputy Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said.
He said policemen manning roadblocks (SJR) were duty-bound to inspect documents such as identification card, licence, vehicle details, the validity of road insurance and travel documents.
“The public must obey the SJR personnel when asked to provide any documents involved and that is within their prerogative of the standard operating procedures (SOPs) under the guidelines of the National Security Council (MKN).
“Not obstructing cops from carrying out duties is also among the SOPs set by MKN,” he said in a press conference after a visit to the roadblock mounted at the Setia Alam Toll Plaza here, today.
