Police regulations need Majlis scrutiny – amendments to Police Act proposed

All police regulations would need Majlis approval in amendments to the Police Act proposed by MP for Fares-Mathoda, Ibrahim Muththalib.

Police can amend regulations at any time, and such unconditional powers are not necessary, says Muththalib.

According to the new proposals, police regulations on Using Weapons, Police Immunities and regulations concerning the Police Integrity Commission, would have to be sanctioned by the Majlis.
