Of course Malaysians will not pay attention to, other than laughing at, the KL police “chief” reported in the national press as saying that  MLAs who gathered outside Parliament would “be called in for questioning soon” About what?

In due course he will find out that rash and stupid statements by police officers of any rank can lead to termination of career, or worse. It is past time that this practice by police officers making public statements about anything that they might dislike is brought to a permanent stop. The police are there to police; not to make fatuous public comments on matters which do not concern them and the IGP should remind all ranks of that. Including himself.
