Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

PETALING JAYA: Several lawyers took to task Home Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for his alleged comments that gangsters would be "shot first" if evidence was obtained as well as claims that a group of gangsters were "friends".

They were commenting on a recording uploaded on a news portal which quoted Zahid as saying "I think the best way is that we no longer compromise with them (gangsters). There is no need to give them any more warning. If we get the evidence, we shoot first.”
