Dr Mahathir also said he thinks the Yang di-Pertuan Agong has already signed Abdul Hamid's appointment letter.

“Yes, I think he will be the Inspector-General of Police,” he told reporters of Abdul Hamid’s new post, after Labour Day celebrations here.Abdul Hamid was transferred as the deputy chief of the police intelligence unit to the Prime Minister's Department in 2015 during a crackdown on the 1Malaysia Development Berhad investigations by the Barisan Nasional regime but he never turned up to the Prime Minister's Department.

Ten days later, Abdul Hamid publicly announced that he was removed from his post due to his insistence on investigating the 1MDB scandal.
