Where is the other half? In the hands of Indon gang robbers? Or in the hands of triad?
with police losing such weapons, are we still safe to live in Malaysia? or are they sold to get more cash as police gaji is so low; it is time to double the salary of the police force!!!
62 weapons lost, 28 recovered, but the total quantity of weapons listed is 89 (51+36+2).
