Question

Accepted Answer

State Secretary's Office Denies Transfer of Selangor Police Personnel Under Investigation to Sarawak and Sabah

The Sarawak State Secretary's Office has officially denied claims that nine police personnel from Selangor, who are currently under investigation for alleged extortion, have been transferred to Sarawak and Sabah. This clarification follows a media report that suggested their transfer to the two Borneo states.
Confirmation of Non-Transfer

The Sarawak Police Commissioner's office has confirmed that the nine personnel in question have not been transferred to Sarawak or Sabah. This verification was sought by the Sarawak State Secretary's Office after a media report by Sinar Harian had stated that the transfer had occurred, citing Selangor Deputy Police chief Datuk S. Sasikala Devi.
Media Report and Public Reaction

A report by Sinar Harian had previously quoted Datuk S. Sasikala Devi, stating that the nine personnel accused of extorting a businessman in Gombak, Selangor, were transferred to Sarawak and Sabah. This news had elicited strong reactions from politicians and non-governmental organisations in Sarawak, with some expressing disappointment and shock.
State Government's Stance on Transfers

While the state government welcomes efforts to bolster police presence in Sarawak to enhance security, it has expressed a hope that any future transfers will involve personnel and officers of high integrity, free from criminal investigations. This sentiment was conveyed by the State Secretary's Office, highlighting the importance of maintaining public trust in law enforcement.
