Informers among biggest threats to security forces in Sabah's east coast

KOTA KINABALU: Traitors such as informers continue to be among the biggest threats to security forces in Sabah’s east coast who are protecting the state from cross-border criminals.

Eastern Sabah Security Command (Esscom) Intelligence Division deputy chief of staff (armed forces) Syed Zulkiflee Syed Abdul Rahman said the challenge of having informers in the eastern Sabah Security Zone (Esszone) is that the criminals would be a step ahead in their operations.
