PETALING JAYA: Several civil groups and NGOs have called for a clean-up of the police force and a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to be set up following allegations by Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador that a group of junior police officers is trying to topple him.

The NGO Edict (Eliminating Deaths and Abuse in Custody Together) called for an RCI to be set up, adding that only an independent commission would be able to identify operatives behind the alleged cartel.
