One day after denying a newspaper report that Inspector-General of Police Musa Hassan has resigned from his post, Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein today revealed that the former will indeed be replaced and said that this was part of a reshuffle of police top brass.
Hishammuddin said he already knew who was going to replace the IGP and the director of the commercial crime division. As such there was no need to speculate and reports news without basis, he said.
Interest over Musa's tenure stems from the many controversies surrounding Musa - among them are being the pet peeve of opposition parties who accuse him of consorting with Barisan Nasional to harass dissidents, implicated of allegedly fabricating evidence along with Attorney-General Abdul Gani Pail in the infamous Anwar Ibrahim 'black-eye' incident and more recently, accused of having a hand in the apparent power struggle within the police force which eventually led to the suspension of then Commercial Crimes Investigation Department director Ramli Yusoff.
