IGP: We will try to secure return of Malaysian IS militants

KUALA LUMPUR: Although it was not in the hands of police to bring Malaysians who were involved in Islamic State militant activities back to the country, efforts have been made efforts to influence them to come back, said Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar (pic).

“We always put in our best efforts to assist those who are already in Syria or Iraq and to try influence them to abandon their belief or ideology. But this is an ideological problem.
