CCTV angle sparks speculation over MPV in cable theft case
SHAH ALAM: Confusion over the angle of closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage led to speculation linking a police mobile patrol vehicle (MPV) to a cable theft syndicate in Kampung Tasek Tambahan, Ampang, on Sept 18.
The Selangor Police Chief, Datuk Shazeli Kahar, addressed the confusion surrounding the CCTV footage in a cable theft case that occurred on September 18 in Kampung Tasek Tambahan, Ampang. The controversy arose from the angle of the CCTV footage, which seemed to suggest that a police mobile patrol vehicle (MPV) was protecting the suspects involved in the theft.
However, Shazeli clarified that the MPV officers were merely carrying out their official duties after receiving information about the incident. He emphasized that there was no actual controversy and that the police were not escorting a vehicle believed to be carrying stolen cables. Shazeli also mentioned that one suspect was arrested and ongoing investigations are being conducted to apprehend the remaining accomplices.
The police are actively tracking down the suspects and are seeking to establish the authenticity of the footage to avoid false accusations.
