According to NST Online, twelve policemen — including four officers from the federal Commercial Crime Investigation Department — were arrested over the alleged gang robbery of about RM200,000 in cryptocurrency during a raid in Kajang.
This is a very serious allegation because:
It involves enforcement officers entrusted with upholding the law.
The case reportedly involves cryptocurrency seizure, which raises questions about digital asset handling procedures.
It affects public trust in institutions meant to protect citizens and businesses.
In Malaysia, the integrity of agencies like the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) is critical for maintaining investor confidence and business security — especially in sectors dealing with digital assets.
Cases involving cryptocurrency also highlight the need for:
Clear SOPs for digital asset seizure.
Transparent chain-of-custody documentation.
Independent oversight mechanisms.
Protection for whistleblowers and victims.
If proven true in court, such actions could amount to criminal breach of trust, abuse of power, and robbery under Malaysian law. However, it is important to allow due legal process before conclusions are drawn.The recent report by NST Online regarding the arrest of twelve policemen — including officers from the federal Commercial Crime Investigation Department — over the alleged robbery of cryptocurrency during a raid in Kajang is deeply troubling.
When those entrusted with enforcing the law are themselves accused of criminal conduct, the issue is no longer about an isolated incident. It becomes a governance issue.
Public institutions derive their authority not from power, but from trust.
Recently, His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim reminded civil servants that efforts to eradicate corruption must not be cosmetic or mere rhetoric. His message was clear: no one is above the law. Civil servants, including members of the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), are paid with taxpayers’ money and must uphold integrity without compromise.
That reminder is timely.
If rogue elements exist within enforcement agencies, decisive action must follow. Governance is not about protecting institutions at all costs — it is about protecting the integrity of institutions. Those who abuse their uniform for personal gain do not defend the force; they damage it.
Strong governance requires:
Immediate and impartial investigations
Transparent disciplinary processes
Public reporting of outcomes
Zero tolerance for abuse of power
Protection for whistleblowers within the system
The uniform must represent discipline, service and honour — not intimidation or impunity.
It is important to stress that not every officer is corrupt. Many serve honourably under difficult conditions. However, failure to remove rogue elements harms the reputation of the entire force and erodes investor confidence, especially in emerging sectors such as digital assets and financial crime enforcement.
Malaysia cannot afford selective accountability.
If governance reform is serious, then internal cleansing must be serious. Where wrongdoing is proven, dismissal and prosecution must follow — regardless of rank.
The Agong’s reminder was not symbolic. It was a warning and a call to action.
Integrity in uniform is not optional. It is foundational to national stability, economic confidence, and the rule of law.Open Message to the Prime Minister: Clean the Uniform, Protect the Nation
YAB Prime Minister,
The recent arrests of twelve policemen — including officers from the federal Commercial Crime Investigation Department of the Royal Malaysia Police — over the alleged robbery of cryptocurrency during a raid in Kajang is not a small matter.
This is not about one case.
This is about whether Malaysia tolerates rogues in uniform.
When enforcement officers — armed with state authority — are accused of abusing that authority for personal gain, it becomes a national governance crisis. The damage is not only financial. It is institutional. It erodes business confidence both locally and abroad, public trust, and Malaysia’s international reputation.
His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim has already reminded civil servants that anti-corruption efforts must not be cosmetic or rhetorical. No one can escape the law. That reminder applies especially to enforcement agencies.
Prime Minister, the public does not want statements. The public wants structural reform.
If there are rogues within the police force, they must be:
Immediately suspended pending investigation
Publicly charged where evidence exists
Permanently dismissed if proven guilty
Stripped of pensions and privileges if abuse of power is confirmed
A uniform must never become a shield for criminality.
Let us be clear: many police officers serve with honour. But protecting the institution means removing those who betray it. Failing to act decisively sends a dangerous message — that power protects itself.
Malaysia is trying to attract investors, build a digital economy, and strengthen governance credibility. How can we speak of reform if enforcement integrity is compromised?
This is the moment for bold action:
Establish an independent oversight mechanism with real prosecutorial teeth
Mandate body cameras and digital audit trails for all raids involving cash or cryptocurrency
Publish transparent statistics on disciplinary actions
Protect whistleblowers within PDRM
Rhetoric about reform must now become visible enforcement.
The Agong has spoken. The rakyat are watching. The business community is watching.
Prime Minister, clean the uniform. Protect the nation.
Integrity must not be selective.据《新海峡时报》在线报道,在加影的一次突袭行动中,包括四名联邦商业罪案调查局警员在内的十二名警察因涉嫌参与一起价值约20万令吉加密货币的团伙抢劫案而被捕。
这是一项非常严重的指控,原因如下:
它涉及受托维护法律的执法人员。
据报道,该案件涉及加密货币的查扣,这引发了人们对数字资产处理程序的质疑。
它影响了公众对旨在保护公民和企业的机构的信任。
在马来西亚,像马来西亚皇家警察(PDRM)这样的机构的诚信对于维护投资者信心和企业安全至关重要——尤其是在涉及数字资产的行业。
涉及加密货币的案件也凸显了以下方面的必要性:
明确的数字资产查扣标准操作程序(SOP)。
透明的监管链文件。
独立的监督机制。
对举报人和受害者的保护。
如果经法庭证实属实,此类行为可能构成马来西亚法律规定的刑事背信、滥用职权和抢劫罪。然而,在得出结论之前,必须遵循正当的法律程序。《新海峡时报》在线版近期报道了12名警察(包括联邦商业罪案调查局的警员)因涉嫌在加影的一次突袭行动中抢劫加密货币而被捕的事件,这令人深感不安。
当那些受托执法的人员自身被指控犯罪时,这不再仅仅是一起孤立事件,而是关乎治理的问题。
公共机构的权威并非源于权力,而是源于信任。
近日,苏丹易卜拉欣陛下提醒公务员,根除腐败的努力绝不能流于形式或仅仅停留在口头上。他的信息很明确:法律面前人人平等。包括马来西亚皇家警察(PDRM)成员在内的公务员,其薪水来自纳税人的钱,必须毫不妥协地维护廉洁。
这一提醒恰逢其时。
如果执法机构内部存在害群之马,必须采取果断行动。治理的重点不在于不惜一切代价保护机构,而在于维护机构的廉洁。那些滥用制服谋取私利的人,并非在捍卫警队,而是在损害警队。
强有力的治理需要:
立即公正地展开调查
透明的纪律处分程序
公开报告调查结果
对滥用职权零容忍
保护系统内的举报人
制服必须代表纪律、服务和荣誉,而非恐吓或有罪不罚。
必须强调的是,并非所有警员都是腐败的。许多人在艰苦的条件下恪尽职守。然而,未能清除害群之马会损害整个警队的声誉,并削弱投资者的信心,尤其是在数字资产和金融犯罪执法等新兴领域。
马来西亚不能容忍选择性问责。
如果治理改革是认真的,那么内部整顿也必须是认真的。一旦证实存在不当行为,无论级别高低,都必须予以解雇和起诉。
最高元首的提醒并非象征性的,而是警告和行动的号召。
身着制服的正直不容忽视。它是国家稳定、经济信心和法治的基础。致首相的公开信:净化警服,守护国家
尊敬的首相:
近日,包括马来西亚皇家警察联邦商业罪案调查局的警员在内的十二名警察因涉嫌在加影的一次突袭行动中抢劫加密货币而被捕,这绝非小事。
这并非个案。
这关乎马来西亚是否容忍身着制服的流氓。
当执法人员——拥有国家权力——被指控滥用职权谋取私利时,这便演变成一场国家治理危机。其损害不仅限于经济层面,更会波及制度层面。它会削弱国内外的商业信心、公众信任以及马来西亚的国际声誉。
苏丹易卜拉欣陛下已提醒公务员,反腐败工作绝非表面功夫或空谈。法律面前人人平等。这一提醒尤其适用于执法机构。
首相,民众需要的不是空洞的声明,而是结构性改革。
如果警队内部存在害群之马,必须采取以下措施:
立即停职接受调查
如有证据,公开指控
如罪名成立,永久开除
如滥用职权行为得到证实,剥夺其养老金和特权
制服绝不能成为犯罪的挡箭牌。
我们必须明确一点:许多警员恪尽职守,恪尽职守。但维护警队形象意味着清除那些背叛警队的人。不采取果断行动会发出危险的信号——权力可以自我保护。
马来西亚正努力吸引投资者,发展数字经济,并提升政府公信力。如果执法公正性受到损害,我们又如何谈论改革?
现在正是采取大胆行动的时刻:
建立具有真正检察权的独立监督机制
强制要求所有涉及现金或加密货币的突击搜查行动佩戴执法记录仪并建立数字审计追踪
公布透明的纪律处分统计数据
保护马来西亚皇家警察内部的举报人
改革的口号必须转化为切实可见的执法行动。
最高元首已发话。人民在注视。商界也在注视。
首相,请保持警惕。保卫国家。
正直不应有所偏颇。 https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1353998936761675&set=a.355676829927229
