Shuhaily's MCBA tenure referred to A-GC for advice — IGP

Kuala Lumpur: Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain's tenure at the Malaysia Border Control and Protection Agency (MCBA) has been referred for legal advice by the Attorney-General's Chambers (A-GC), according to Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohd Khalid Ismail. The case is still under consideration for a possible termination or reduction in tenure, which would require consent from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

The assignment of Shuhaily to MCBA was based on a two-year cadre secondment contract from the police, which received the King's approval. The referral to the A-GC is necessary to ensure that any actions taken regarding Shuhaily's employment comply with the terms of his contract and the requirement for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong's consent.

The Police Force Commission will also be involved in further action once the legal process and the King's consent process are complete. Shuhaily remains a serving police officer and will be returned to the police force upon completion of the legal and consent processes. The final decision on any further action or arrangements will be made by the Home Ministry and the Inspector-General of Police.
