KUALA LUMPUR: Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador says he has a “name list” of the cartel in the force he claims is trying to oust him.
Insisting on not revealing their identities, the Inspector-General of Police said the situation was under control.
“The reason I exposed this issue in the first place is so that they know that I know (what is going on). My information is verified and I know who they are, ” he told reporters in Bukit Aman yesterday.
Abdul Hamid, who revealed this last Thursday, explained that he had no issue with his officers having ambition.
“The problem starts when such ambition is coupled with unhealthy practices. I always advised those involved to stop it.
“If you aspire to be the IGP, that is fine, but do it the right way and give your best... but not for personal gain, ” he added.
Abdul Hamid, who is due to retire in May, said he was not raising the issue to lobby for a contract extension, adding that he was content to retire and focus on farming, which was his hobby.
“I did not do this to test the market for a contract extension. I am not that kind of a person. I have pride.
“I am just a normal man who was given the opportunity to lead the force. I am just standing up to tell the truth, ” he added.
He said that as the IGP, action had been taken against over 100 personnel who had to put on the orange suit (when prosecuted by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission).
“Why must you regret now? I have already given reminders and warnings in the past. I’m hoping that this group will repent before they are made to don the orange suit, ” he said, adding that he was not trying to wash dirty linen in public.
In the earlier interview, Abdul Hamid revealed that there was a movement consisting of young police officers within the force conspiring to get rid of him.
Calling them a cartel, he said their ambition was to dominate the force for personal interest.
On another matter, the IGP said that police would beef up security at sensitive locations following the diplomatic fallout between North Korea and Malaysia.
“What happened here did not occur because we are their enemies, but they chose to severe diplomatic ties with us.
“I have ordered all department directors and state police chiefs to prepare to monitor the situation, ” he said, adding that police would continue to monitor the situation until satisfied it was resolved.
On Friday, Malaysia ordered all North Korean diplomatic staff members to leave the country within 48 hours after the country severed ties with Malaysia.
This followed Malaysia’s move to extradite a North Korean suspect to the United States on money laundering charges.
The North Korean diplomats left on Sunday. - Star
