Puchong MP Gobind Singh Deo said internal inquiries are unlikely to be able to tackle large issues such as the cartel and corruption exposed by IGP Abdul Hamid Bador recently, and has called on the MACC to launch a full and open investigation.
Gobind (

Straits Times report in which the IGP said several former Integrity and Standard Compliance Department (Jips) officers had allowed those who “passed favours to investigators” to be let off scot-free, instead of being charged or transferred out of their positions.

IPOH: Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador Friday confirmed that an officer from the Penang Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) had indeed released the suspects involved in a Macau Scam.
“Investigations by Bukit Aman Integrity and Standard Compliance Department (Jips) found there was such an offence. We are taking drastic action because this is clearly a betrayal of the trust placed on him,” he told reporters after attending the conferment of the pilot wing and the closing of the private pilot’s licence (PPL) course at the Police Air Wing Unit Training Base here Friday.
