Awards for cops who said ‘tak nak’ to RM500,000 bribe

KUALA LUMPUR, June 30 – Two policemen who rejected a RM500,000 bribe by drug traffickers caught with syabu worth RM280mil in May have each been given the Integrity Award.

Detective Corporal Mohd Surani Sarbini, 44, and Lance Corporal Mohd Tarmazi Arbayee, 25, were also promoted to Detective Sergeant and Corporal, respectively, for their part in the largest drug seizure by Malaysian police.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak presented the award at a special ceremony at parliament house here today.

In the seizure at 6.45am on May 2, Mohd Surani and Mohd Tarmazi who were returning to Cenderawasih police station, Rompin, Pahang stopped a lorry laden with 96 boxes and 480 packages suspected to contain syabu.

They detained two men who later offered them a bribe of RM10,000 with promise of RM500,000 more after their release.

Mohd Surani from Rompin narcotic CID division said he believed that every member of the police should serve with integrity.

Mohd Tarmizi from Rompin Mobile Patrol Vehicle division said he turned down the bribe as he wanted to remain in the police force for a long time. – Bernama
