16 cops in the dock over bribery

SHAH ALAM: Sixteen policemen found themselves on the wrong side of the law when they were hauled to court to face graft charges.

Among them was a senior police officer in Kota Kinabalu with an exemplary service award. He was charged in the Corruption Court there with four other police personnel.

Sabah Commercial Crimes deputy chief Deputy Supt Abdul Mahyuddin Abdullah, 43, was accused of receiving RM5,000 from one Josepin Langkan at a cafe in Taman Ridge-view on June 18, last year.

He was also charged with agreeing to receive RM500 from Josepin, who was being investigated for cheating, to refrain from taking action against her.

DSP Mahyuddin, who received the exemplary service award in 2013, was released on a RM20,000 bail.

With him in the dock were Insp Mohd Faiz Mohd Yusof, 32, anti-narcotics detective Elly Boniface Siew @ Siu Tugok, 38, and detective Liza Ambau, 39.
