Outgoing IGP: I look happy, but I'm worried

  • 3 years ago
Outgoing Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Abdul Hamid Bador, who handed over duties to his successor Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani today, said while he appeared happy over his retirement, he was worried about the challenges faced by the police force.

He said this included the public's perception of the police, which came amid Home Minister Hamzah Zanudin's admission that he was the person in a recording discussing appointing "our boys" to key positions in the police force.

"On the surface, I appear happy and relieved that I can enjoy quality time again which I have forgone but deep in my heart, I am anxious (gusar) about leaving the force which is still struggling with the endless war of perception and is judged by the court of public opinion," Abdul Hamid (above) said at the event.
