'Shoot if in doubt, faced with obstruction or under threat' - KL police chief [WATCH]

Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Fadil Marsus has instructed all officers to remain vigilant for potential dangers while performing their duties to ensure public safety and order. Fadil emphasized the need for his personnel to be prepared to act swiftly in situations involving risks or threats. He urged them to stay alert, drawing their firearm, identifying their target, and being ready for action.

Fadil expressed his concern over incidents like the one in Gombak, where a Mobile Patrol Vehicle unit policeman had his right hand severed after being slashed by a foreign man. The chief urged his officers to draw their firearm, identify their target, and be prepared to shoot if there is any obstruction, doubt, or feeling of being threatened.
