IGP: 'No problem' if IGSO made public
Inspector-General of Police Musa Hassan said he had no problem if the Inspector-General Standing Order (IGSO) on the use of firearms was to be made public.
Inspector-General of Police Musa Hassan said he had no problem if the Inspector-General Standing Order (IGSO) on the use of firearms was to be made public.
"Everything can be read, no problem. That's the way we (police) use firearms," he told reporters after attending a civil servants assembly at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) here today.
He said it would be good if the IGSO was made public to enable the public to know how the police use firearms on duty.
In this regard, he said, the public could no longer blame the police on the use of firearms against those who violated the law.
"When you know how we do our job based on the IGSO, you can expect what will happen if you do not adhere to the law," he said.
Musa was commenting on a proposal by a special panel to monitor investigations into the fatal shooting of Aminulrasyid Amzah, 15, that the IGSO on the use of firearms should be made public.
The panel noted that there was nothing wrong with the standard operating procedure (SOP) on the use of firearms by the police.
