KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The number of police personnel to be deployed to Sandakan to ensure smooth election process during the by-election for the parliamentary constituency, will be increased, says Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun.
Security control should also be enhanced on the basis of uncertain situation especially in the southern Philippines, which might affect Sabah, said the Inspector-General of Police.
"I have also given a specific order to Sabah Police Commissioner Datuk Omar Mammah and Sandakan Police chief to ensure that the by-election runs safely and peacefully," he told reporters after visiting the Selayang Hospital here in conjunction with the 212th Police Memorial Day on Friday . Mohamad Fuzi, however, said the deployment of the police personnel to Sandakan would not involve those in the peninsula as it would involve extra costs.
