Top cop riled up by report on old drug trafficking case near station
The Kuala Lumpur police chief says a reporter's recollections from a decade ago amounted to 'unwarranted publicity' that sparks 'a negative perception of the police force'.
Kuala Lumpur Police Chief Fadil Marsus expressed frustration over a report detailing a drug trafficking operation that occurred near the Sentul police station a year ago. The reporter, Azrul Affandi Sobry, recounted in a YouTube podcast how he had hidden in a vacant temple for three to four days to observe the operation firsthand.
Sobry noted that the drug den was openly operating in front of a major police station without being raided. Fadil emphasized that such incidents can tarnish the police's image and credibility. The police chief stated that the department remains committed to maintaining integrity and public confidence.
