The Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar must pierce quick to restore the mislaid conviction the people once had in the police.

I'm not opposite the police. I'm just fearful of them. Alfred Hitchcock, English film director Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein will hook backwards, if necessary, to assure the rakyat that the three policemen-turned-rapists in Penang will not shun the wrath of justice.
The unfortunate law is, does the rakyat trust him upon this?
The doubt comes about because this is not the first time the country's cops have abused their authority as well as outraged the modesty of the woman.
On Jun 18, 2008, the policeman upon duty at the Putra Heights (in Subang Jaya) military station raped the 17-year-old pillion rider after detaining her beloved at the military station for roving the motorcycle but the licence.
The lady was forced to perform verbal sex upon the cop-rapist who afterwards in jeopardy her to keep mum about the incident. However, interjection to Puchong MP Gobind Singh Deo, the situation was brought in to the open.
But the box unsuccessful to perturb the country's authorities, from the prime apportion to the inspector-general of police.
Then in November last year, the 39-year-old finance accountant, who had highlighted her plight of being allegedly molested by the organisation of 11 policemen 7 years ago, found herself in the dock instead, with the charge being associated to the situation that took place 7 years ago.
Last year, too, the nation's cops forced womanlike Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) activists who! were de tained to undress in the participation of masculine military officers.
(Thirty-six of the PSM activists were detained whilst carrying out their "Udahlah Bersaralah" Enough already, Retire Now campaign in Perak, to remind Malaysians of the pitfalls of returning Barisan Nasional to power in the 13th ubiquitous election.)
Complaints of sexual bungle by military were done by detainees in Kepala Batas, Penang, as well as Ipoh, respectively as well as PSM secretary-general S Arutchelvan said the military military officer told them they indispensable 6 months to investigate the report.
Clearly, the policemen of this land appear to have turn the law unto themselves, perpetrating crimes opposite women as well as fearing the indirect repercussions.

The ultimate situation that has further smeared the image of the nation's 205-year-old Royal Malaysian Police happened in Seberang Prai when three policemen gang-raped an Indonesian lady whom they had detained for unwell to furnish her passport.
They also warned her not to discuss it any one about the rape. The woman, however, mustered all bravery as well as done the military inform opposite them, heading to the contingent being nabbed.
For sure, this situation has placed Malaysia in the disastrous light in the eyes of her next door neighbour Indonesia that not as well long ago was sore with the former over countless complaints of maid abuse by Malaysian employers, prompting the solidify in 2009 upon Indonesian maids being despatched to Malaysia.
It was after much declaration that Malaysia managed to persuade Indonesia to lift the freeze. And right away with the gang-rape of an Indonesian woman, the Malaysian supervision has the lot of explaining to do to Indonesia.
Maybe that is why the Barisan Nasional government, that manages the affairs of the nation, is all pins as well as needles over this ul! timate r ape incident. If the BN is giving "prominence" to this box by trying to pacify the rakyat that justice will take its course, it is simply to forestall Indonesia from severing ties with Malaysia.
Otherwise, as seen from the prior rape as well as molest cases perpetrated by the military as well as that unsuccessful to receive any attention from the Home Ministry as well as the Women, Family as well as Community Development Ministry, it is obvious that the BN supervision has no consolation for rape survivors; in fact, the gang-rape of the Indonesian lady has been turned in to the political sham by BN.
The cops as well as BN equally to blame
The cops as well as BN equally to blame
It is not usually the three policemen who are the perpetrators; just as guilty is Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak's supervision that views rape cases involving authorities lightly.
Justice must be meted out irrespective of ethnicity as well as nationality. To collect as well as select that box to concentration upon exposes the insincerity upon the part of the sovereign government.
Also, the unchanging refusal by the BN leaders to implement the Independent Police Complaints as well as Misconduct Commission (IPCMC) gives rise to the subject of either the supervision is working palm in glove with the police, allowing the a military to shun unpunished for certain crimes.
Looks similar to the nude squats as well as rapes in military lock-ups have done no stroke upon the government, seeking at its doubtful logic in dismissing the IPCMC.
So long as the supervision refuses to take the stand in traffic with the atrocities committed by the military opposite the rakyat, no volume of declaration from the Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar can restore the mislaid conviction the people once had in the police.
