KUALA LUMPUR: Dang Wangi Police Chief ACP Sulizmie Affendy Sulaiman sustained a head injury on Thursday (Sept 11), believed to be due to a rock thrown by an unidentified individual during a tense enforcement operation in Kampung Sungai Baru here.
The incident occurred as authorities carried out a court-ordered operation to cut off the electricity supply and demolish several homes in the area.
According to sources, police personnel on site had instructed residents gathered at the scene to disperse but several people reportedly refused to comply and continued to provoke officers, leading to heightened tensions.
Photographs of Sulizmie’s head injury also went viral on social media, prompting concern and condemnation from the public.
Bukit Aman Internal Security and Public Order Department deputy director Datuk Mohamad Suzrin Mohamad Rodhi said the General Operations Force (GOF) is on standby and ready to be deployed if deemed necessary to control the situation.
“If we receive a request from the contingent, GOF will certainly assist,” he told a press conference after the department’s Obstacle Course Test at the Central GOF Brigade headquarters in Cheras on Thursday. – Bernama
