KUALA LUMPUR: The three policemen, believed to be involved in misconduct for visiting nightclubs in Golok, Thailand, will be transferred, says Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain.
He said that the policemen, aged between 26 and 32 with the ranks of sergeant major, corporal, and lance corporal, were being investigated by the Integrity and Standard Compliance Department at the Kelantan Police Contingent Headquarters.
Razarudin added that one of them had already been transferred from the Integrity and Standard Compliance Division in Pasir Mas to the Kelantan headquarters, while the other two, attached to the Tanah Merah district police headquarters, would be transferred out of the Kelantan police contingent.
"On Nov 10, the department at the Kelantan headquarters received several images and videos showing police personnel suspected of visiting and socialising at an entertainment outlet in Golok.
"It is believed that they have been visiting these venues since early this year,” he said when contacted on Wednesday (Dec 4).
Razarudin added that the policemen were believed to have entered Golok using an illegal entry point and were linked to illegal moneylenders.
He said that the integrity investigation was ongoing, and the findings would be submitted to the Kelantan Police Disciplinary Authority for further action. - Bernama
