BATU PAHAT: The police will be ready to deploy additional manpower including from Bukit Aman to deal with the floods, especially in Johor and Sabah, says Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani.

He said for the time being, there was no requirement for additional manpower as the capacity of officers and policemen in the districts affected by the floods was still sufficient.
