> His outspokenness on crimes and issues afflicting the state may be construed as an attempt to gain popularity or being pushed under political pressure, but Kelantan police chief Comm Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mamat says his comments were purely driven by his genuine concern for the wellbeing of the people he serves.
Utusan Malaysia reported that the police top brass, a Kelantan native, said he had no intentions of degrading the state with his comments but was resolute in ridding it of the crimes that are destroying the future of the state’s youth.
“The comments and revelations I made were solely from me. I spoke up as a state police chief and it was backed by data and facts.
“It is my responsibility to do so and this is why Allah sent me to Kelantan. I cannot blindly make a statement or I may face a suit,” he told the daily in an interview.
