For the first time, Putrajaya’s top lawyer has publicly stated that preventive detention had actually failed to check the rise in violent crimes but the police were “addicted" to using the law. Attorney General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail (pic) revealed that many suspects were detained without trial and freed later but public order and security did not improve in the country. This is a honest statement from the AG. It is time for the government to look at the crime situation more holistically. It has to start with the total overhaul of the police force to fight crime and maintain public safety.
