Royal Malaysia Police Now 'Famous' In Indonesia!

Police are still investigating a report on an alleged assault by four plainclothes policemen on an Indonesian karate official at Nilai near here early Friday morning.

Negeri Sembilan Police Chief Datuk Mohd Noh Kandah said the case was investigated under Section 323 of the Penal Code for causing hurt.

"We have received two reports regarding the incident, one from the victim and the other from the police," he said when contacted Tuesday.

However, he declined to comment on the incident which had received extensive coverage in the Indonesian newspapers, especially Sinar Harapan.

The official, who is Indonesia's chief karate umpire Donald Pieter Luther Kolopita, was allegedly handcuffed and assaulted by four men said to be policemen while walking back to his hotel in Nilai.

Kolopita was here to attend the recently concluded 8th Asian Karate Championship at the Nilai Indoor Stadium.

The Indonesian team pulled out from the championship at the last minute due the alleged assault.

Kolopita alleged that four men, said to be policemen, had jumped out of a van, arrested and beat him up while onlookers dared not come to his aid.

Meanwhile, Negeri Sembilan Youth and Sports Action Committee chairman Datuk Jamlus Aziz said the state government viewed the case seriously and asked police to speed up their investigations. (Bernama)

***** As if the IGP doesn't have enough on his hands, now this criminal act by our cops threatens to become an international incident. But if Zak Mad Deros can get away scot free from dozens of charges in court, one wonders if the same should not apply to samseng policemen. After all if guilty-as-hell politicians are not punished why should low level policemen be brought to book? Semuanya will ultimately be ok! Unless of course our abang2 in Jakarta decide to do a little testicle squeezing.

Before we rush into condemning the policemen, could it be a case of mistaken identity? Does Kolopita look like dear old osama or mullah omar, the head of the taliban? I mean, did the policemen let him go after they realised they had wallopped the wromg guy?

Coward anonymous. F*ck off.

WTF is "mistaken identify". Can the authority some day beat you f*cking anonymous coward and what will you say. If the authority REFUSE to be professional, the citizen has the right to threat them as unprofessional.

Recent newspaper report say a group of people just watching when the uniform get beaten up by mat rempit during operation. Since the police are suppose to be "pro" on handle up matters, why the f*ck the want to risk the public life by complaining "the public no helping".

What about the black American navy guy who got picked up in Petaling St in KL ? He was handcuffed and beaten up by some cops, thinking he was some African guy who overstayed.

He was not given a chance to show his passport which was in his hotel room. A case of mistaken identity could so easily have been corrected, if only .....

So now we have the Indonesians and the Americans brething down the police.

Well, one day the policemen could beat someone who look like osama or mullah omar or any black guy in the street, broke his ribs and his face in a second or two, and then ooohh.. they just realized they got the wrong guy and innocently said, "ooh we thought you were another guy, you can go now!".

Hey anonymous dude, what year is it now in Malaysia? 16../17../18.. something??
