IGP: Probe into GISB follows the law

KUALA LUMPUR: Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain dismissed claims that investigations into Global Ikhwan Services and Business Holdings Sdn Bhd (GISB) are being conducted overzealously.

He said the investigations into the firm were thorough and fully complied with the law.

"We conduct investigations according to the legislation and will not act overzealously.

"We are not doing this investigation without being guided by the law. We are getting help from agencies, such as the Inland Revenue Board," he said when contacted today.

Earlier, Pas secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan said the party welcomed the police probe into GISB and wanted action to be taken against those found guilty of any crime.

However, he said, Pas believed that the group's positive aspects, such as its extensive business network, should be protected from hasty and unjust actions that may stem from rash sentiments, prejudice, competition and political agendas.

On Sept 11, police launched Op Global, which saw raids conducted on 20 charity homes linked to GISB in Selangor and Negri Sembilan.

Yesterday, Selangor police raided business premises believed to be primarily linked to GISB during an operation in Bandar Country Homes, Rawang.

The company is allegedly involved in child exploitation and the promotion of doctrine of bigotry.

GISB has denied the allegations of child exploitation and sexual abuse.
