Detailed plan to fight street crime on July 27
PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak will announce details on the Government’s efforts to curb street crime on July 27, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein.
The plan would be focused on achieving national Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), he said after officiating at the opening of the Ara Damansara police station here on Tuesday.
“The Prime Minister would elaborate on the details then on how to reduce street crime.
“This would include focusing on ‘hotspots’ and cooperation from relevantparties, such as the Attorney-General, the courts and the Prisons Department,” he said.
Hishammuddin said the Government was also looking into the possibility of imposing community service sentences of snatch thieves and other criminal offenders, depending on the severity of their crime.
“Community service sentencing might be an effective way of combating snatch thefts,” he added.
He also said that all district police chiefs have been instructed to call the numbers on Ah Long (illegal moneylender) advertisements in an effort to “better understand the root cause of the menace.”
Here is something interesting. It seems that the PM will announce to all of us, including the crime lords, the detailed plans on how the government wants to fight crime. So all of you, meaning mostly the crime lords, is tuning in very closely. And they will have a counter plan on this.
This is how Malaysia is.... we will tell you first in details and then if you still get caught.... haiz... you are a dumb criminal. Now all the criminal need to do is to tune in to the news on the 27th (haiyooo some more give them date) for the details.
