Villagers are taking Pitas district police chief Haris Amroh to court for destroying their crops and property.
The villagers from Kampung Bulud Batu (KBB) in Montuyon, Pitas District (Pitas has the dubious distinction of being the poorest place in Malaysia), will haul district police chief Haris Amroh to court on Monday for a whole list of offences that include wanton destruction of their crops and property, confiscation of planting tools, abuse of power and acting beyond his jurisdiction.
So far, there has been no response from the police, according to senior Kota Kinabalu lawyer Kong Hong Ming. Kong has agreed to represent the villagers 'pro bono publico' (for the public good) in a civil suit: "Not a single person has been interviewed by the police so far."
Police again! Instead of protecting, they are now plundering!
