Sabah Police Commissioner Datuk Jauteh Dikun clarifies that the demolition operation in Semporna targets illegal immigrant squatter houses and is not aimed at Malaysian citizens. He states that the house mentioned in the news report belonging to Sitti Bandorah Mahalil, widow of Sergeant Abd Azis Sarikon who was killed in the Tanduo Tragedy, actually belongs to her father and is not inhabited by her.
: The alleged eviction of the widow of a heroic police officer killed in the Tanduo Tragedy has been exploited by certain parties to undermine the ongoing demolition operation of an illegal immigrant squatter colony in Semporna.
“We found this issue to be untrue, the widow does not live in the house in question ... this person lives on the mainland and has her own house. The authorities have also never issued any threats against the individual in question. Jauteh said officers from the Semporna district police headquarters had met with the family to find out the real situation and the woman stated that there may have been a slight misunderstanding when the explanation was given about the house located in the Sabah Parks area.
He said that until now, there had only been one police report received involving the demolition of the squatter colony.
