Unauthorised usage of items associated with police


AS a retired police officer, I am relieved that Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohd Khalid Ismail has made his stance clear on individuals, companies and organisations using the Royal Malaysia Police’s (RMP) name, logo, image or any official police identity for promotional or commercial purposes without prior authorisation, “Warning: Misuse of police identity” (The Star, July 16).

“Any party found using its official identity without permission or in a manner that creates the false impression that the police endorses a product or service could face legal action,” he warned.
