IGP: Malaysia not a police sta

KUALA LUMPUR: Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan has refuted Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s claim that Malaysia is a police state.

He said the police had never threatened, quizzed or arrested anyone who held or intended to hold any public gathering or rally for the former Prime Min-ister.

The police had in fact, provided extra protection and security for Dr Mahathir since the July pepper spray incident in Kelan-tan, he said in a statement yesterday.

“We have never created an atmosphere of a police state as claimed by Tun. Since I took over as the IGP, I have had numerous open discussions with various organisations, including the Bar Council and (other) NGOs with regards to grouses and complaints about the force,” he added.

“We have never rejected any applications for gatherings un-less our investigations reveal that they threaten public order and security.”

Dr Mahathir had during a meeting with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi on Oct 27, claimed that the police had threatened and disturbed people intending to hold gatherings that could possibly criticise the Prime Min-ister. Musa said the police had never threatened anyone and if a permit had been issued for a gathering, they would monitor the gathering.
