KUALA TERENGGANU: Countering the Lahad Datu intrusion five years ago was the biggest challenge a police weapons expert faced in his almost three decades of service.

Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Amin Sidek, who is also the Commandant of the Terengganu Police Contingent’s Bomb Disposal Unit, was called upon to evaluate the weapons that should be used to handle the intruders.
