KUALA LUMPUR: Police have stepped up the application of standard operating procedures (SOPs) in an effort to curb the spread of Covid-19 in Sabah, including in the Benteng Lahad Datu group, and will focus primarily on illegal immigrants.
Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador (pix) said that it was a preventive measure, since the police had no knowledge of the origin and state of health of the illegal immigrants.
He said instructions on SOP enforcement and control actions had also been issued to all police station, district and state chiefs.
For example, I have reminded Kedah Police Chief (Datuk Hasanuddin Hassan) to increase law enforcement due to the increasing number of Covid-19 cases in the state.

Abdul Hamid said that there was a possibility that the public would start to become complacent and be relieved that recently announced Covid-19 statistics showed the number of cases dropped to one or two digits.
“This (the increase in cases) is due to the flagrant violation of the SOP as happened in the discos and entertainment centers. The risk is so high and there will be new clusters, ”he said.
Bernama reported yesterday that no police or personnel were infected with the Covid-19 virus in the Benteng Lahad Datu group, although the new registered cases soared to 100.
In a separate event, Abdul Hamid said that several witnesses had been called to record his statement regarding the death of a soldier, who is suspected of having jumped from the third floor of a building in a Batu Pahat military camp in Johor el August 28. .
“Statements are being taken from the soldiers, and once we get the details, we will send a full report to the Attorney General’s Office for further action.
“We are looking from various angles, including that there may have been abuse or perhaps the deceased was scared, then he ran and jumped without intent to commit suicide,” he said.Named
