Dear readers,
In a grim morning, as we sat near the surau next to the mortuary of Kajang Hospital, the coconut tress seems standing still, watching us huddled in a corner waiting for the father of the dead constable to bid goodbye to his beloved son killed in the bid to apprehend drugs dealers. He was stabbed on the chest and succumbed to his injuries while being rushed to the hospital.
I rushed over upon receiving the news that a constable was killed and met the CPO at that time Dato' Yahaya Udin. As I hand over some donation, I noticed that the CPO waa a tired but determined man. He vowed to get the killers.
We we discussing how to arrange for transport to ferry the body back to his hometown and being from a poor family, the parents arrived at the mortuary with little money left in the pockets. Being a Saturday worsened the situation as banks were closed and the welfare of Kajang can only come out with little cash and a cheque.
I saw tears streaming down an old man face, deeply hurt, angry and feeling lost on the sudden lose of his beloved son. The suspect cruelness had made his world turned topsy turvy. As he hugged his son body, the whole world stood still and tears were flowing freely. The police force lost another policeman.
What hurt us most was there was not even one politician who cares to be present to console the greiving family nor are they there to offer words of encouragement to the police force. Not even the Barisan YB which at that moment was a MCA lady and she must be sleeping soundly in her home without knowing what happen or do not care what happen. . Not any PR leaders were present too at that time.They never cares if a policeman dies . They never cares if you die policeman. It is a true fact. Have you seen Lim Kit Siang visiting policeman injured while performing their duties. Last time when YB Lee Lam Thye was in DAP, he visited most police stations and inquired about their welfare. No wonder he earned so much respect from the police force. No wonder he got fed up with DAP politics and left them. Syabas Tan Sri Lee. Sehingga kini saya masih mengenang jasa yang kamu curahkan semasa lawatan kamu ke Pantai police station dan kamu benar benar tolong kami. The others, they only care when they die. They can hentam you, they hentam you cukop cukop kalau boleh mereka kata semua polis korup. Tetapi takala mereka di samun dan menerima molotov cocktail atau peluru mereka lari minta bantuan polis.
Sorry lah brader, we are the baruah, they are the elites. When one died in the police custody, they carried him around and make him a hero. Not even one Barisan leader and not even Pak Lah dare to say a thing except our Botak Syed Hamid came in full defence of the police force. There are some Barisan leaders joining the opposition condemning the police force. It was very sweet of them, yeah.
The others Barisan leaders took a safe stand and refuse to comment. They cowered into corners and let the poor police defend themselves. No public dare to stepped out as they fear their voices will be drowned or they may simply be targetted . I am not condoning the recklessness of the policemen involved nor am I being bias but let the law take its due course lah. Due respect to Kugans'familyand they had engaged a capable lawyer to look into the matter and I am assured that the truth will prevailed. Whoever responsible in the action of causing his death, will be put to trial but not judge and tried by the media. No one really knows and we are still waiting for the second post mortem result.
See the vast contradictions. Sorry sorry sorry. I am just being too emotional but this is the cruel fact the police is facing.
It was such a sad day for all of the police force there as no one offered to help when our officer fell to ground and ruthlessly killed.. This is the Malaysian YBs attitude, may it be from Barisan, may it be from DAP or Keadilan.
The poor father had to accompany the body back to his hometown and what happened during the journey I leave to everyone guess and imagination.
Is it worthwhile to be a policeman? They will never be accorded the respect by the politicians.. I hope the YBs can change their attitudes and let us work together for a safer Malaysia and lets start it now.
No point pointing the finger at the police and accusing them of this and that but we ourselves fail in exercising crime preventions programmes.
Anyway, Mr Policeman, don't worry there are many who support you and we will back you up in and you must continue to perform your duty deligently.
