Malaysian Army to review SOP after serviceman arrested with pistol, ammunition and ketum, says chief

The Malaysian Army will review its standard operating procedures after a serviceman was arrested with a pistol and suspected ketum in Kuala Lumpur.

The arrested individual, in his 30s, was in a transition training programme and is now detained pending trial.

The Malaysian Armed Forces will cooperate fully with authorities while following its own investigation protocols.

PORT DICKSON, Oct 17 — The Malaysian Army (TDM) will review its standard operating procedures (SOP) following the arrest of a serviceman found with a pistol, dozens of rounds of ammunition and liquid suspected to be ketum at a camp in Kuala Lumpur.

Chief of Army Gen Tan Sri Azhan Md Othman said the review was part of the army’s continuous efforts to improve existing procedures and address any gaps identified.

“The same applies to this case. We are constantly monitoring. Although an SOP is already in place, we are always looking at continuous improvement,” he told reporters after the Passing Out Parade of Young Male Soldiers Series 206/26, involving 1,485 soldiers, here today.

The event was also attended by Chief of Defence Force Gen Tan Sri Malek Razak Sulaiman.

Azhan said the individual, who is in his 30s, was undergoing a six-month transition training programme and was scheduled to complete his service in three months.

“For your information, the individual is undergoing transition training before completing his service and is currently detained at Sungai Buloh Prison for the trial process and further action,” he said.

He added that TDM would extend full cooperation to the authorities, including by providing the necessary information on the case.

Meanwhile, Malek Razak said the Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM) had its own procedures and investigation protocols for handling cases involving its personnel to ensure that all actions were taken in accordance with established regulations. — Bernama
