Deputy Inspector-General of Police Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay has reminded his personnel that going for pilgrimage after indulging in corruption would not absolve them of their sins.
“You may remember me saying this before, when it comes to corruption, especially for Muslims, don’t think your sins of corruption will be absolved after going for haj or umrah.
“No such thing when it comes to corruption. Go ask your ustaz, the mufti. I have even asked the grand mufti of Al-Azhar (University)…no such thing.
“So, I remind you all again, go and seek forgiveness from 32.5 million Malaysians, one by one (if you have been involved in corruption),” he said during a convocation ceremony for cadet officers at the Police Training Centre.
He also reminded the cadets that going on a pilgrimage while indulging in corruption was nothing short of making a mockery of God’s laws.

“So, listen and make sure this message gets imbibed into your souls,” Ayob said, adding that the message is also meant for non-Muslim cadets.
“To me, there is no religion that asks its followers to become corrupt and abuse their powers.”
kt comments: ... except Judaism. which favoured:
(a) Jacob for cheating on his father and brother Esau,
(b) Judah for incestuous sex with his daughter-in-law Tamar,
(c) David for adultery with his general's wife, murdering that cuckolded general, his king and family, treason with the Philistine foe, etc
Lodge reports with IPCC, MACC
Ayob also urged new personnel not to be afraid to lodge reports against officers who abuse their power and indulge in corruption.
He acknowledged that working in the real world can be challenging, with some ending up with bad superiors.
However, Ayob said, unlike in the past, officers now have ample options to lodge complaints against errant colleagues, such as the Independent Police Conduct Commission (IPCC) and MACC.

“If you’re doubtful about making a complaint with the Police Integrity and Standard Compliance Department, lodge a report with the IPCC, that’s the best option apart from MACC.
“Don’t let it slide. If you feel desperate, take down my phone number and inform me directly,” Ayob added.
Ayob also warned that when he chairs the committee to investigate errant officers, firing as a punishment will be a priority.
“As long as I’m the deputy IGP, that’s my first option. No need to use any cables (for support).
“Use whatever cable you want, if I’m chairing it (the committee), I will sack (if officer is found to have committed wrongdoing). I will not compromise,” he added.
