Four cops in remand in bribery case involving couple

MELAKA: Four policemen have been remanded for five days for allegedly soliciting and receiving a bribe amounting to RM2,000. The money was allegedly taken as an inducement for not taking action against an individual found with his lover inside a car. The remand order, which lasts until June 28, was issued by Magistrate Sharda Shienha Mohd Suleiman at the Magistrate's Court in Ayer Keroh here. All four were detained by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Com­mission at the commission's Melaka office on Monday. Two of the suspects are corporals, aged 33 and 36, another is a 26-year-old constable and the fourth is a 40-year-old police volunteer reserve holding the rank of corporal. All the suspects are believed to have stopped the complainant, who was in a vehicle with his fiancee at the parking area of Jalan Melaka Mall in Ayer Keroh. Melaka MACC director Adi Supian Shafie confirmed the arrest and said the suspects are being investigated under Section 16(a)(B) of the MACC Act 2009.
