Durian Tunggal Shooting: Cops Removed From Active Duty

Dec 29, 2025

Bukit Aman is still investigating the incident in which cops shot and killed 3 suspected gang members in Durian Tunggal, Melaka.  

So far, over 40 statements have been recorded as part of the probe, while the officers involved have been temporarily removed from active duty.  

Criminal Investigations Dept Chief Datuk M. Kumar adds that a purported audio recording of the incident has been sent to Cybersecurity Malaysia for analysis.  

State police previously said that officers had killed the trio in self defence, but this has since been disputed by the deceased's families.

Bukit Aman also says the recent improvised explosive blast in Nilai, Negeri Sembilan appears to be an isolated incident. 

This, as authorities have not found any evidence so far to link the alleged bomb maker with any extremist groups.  

Investigations are ongoing into the 62-year-old suspect, who's in hospital for injuries after an IED blew up.

Datuk Seri Najib Razak has already submitted an appeal over his failed bid to serve the remainder of his SRC International jail sentence under house arrest.  

The former prime minister's lawyer also confirmed that Najib has yet to lodge his appeal against his conviction and sentence in the RM2.3b 1MDB trial.
