A video clip has been circulating showing three traffic policemen conducting checks near The Mines shopping mall. One policeman appears to have received something from the driver of a car, putting it in his pocket before walking away to join the other policemen.

Serdang police chief AA Anbalagan said an internal investigation is being held to determine if any misconduct or breach of procedures had been committed during the roadblock, which was held from 12.15pm to 1.15pm today.

“We will not compromise (with the officer involved) if it is proven that misconduct had been committed. The case is still being investigated,” he said in a statement.

Anbalagan also urged the public against making speculative comments about the case that could disrupt the investigation.
