SPRM tightens security, arms management

The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (SPRM) is implementing stricter measures for security and arms management. The commission stressed the necessity of rigorous adherence to established procedures for the handling and recording of weapons.

Datuk Seri Abd. Halim Aman, the Chief Commissioner of SPRM, stated that State Security Protection Committees (JKP) are now mandated to convene at least three times a year. These committees must also submit self-assessment reports, indicating a move towards greater accountability and oversight in security protocols.

This initiative reflects the SPRM's commitment to enhancing its internal security framework. By tightening controls over sensitive assets like weaponry, the commission aims to prevent potential misuse and ensure operational integrity. The increased meeting frequency and reporting requirements are designed to foster a more robust security culture within the organization.

The system for storing and recording the entry and exit of weapons managed by the Security Division and the Armament Section needs to be tightened without any leniency towards the established procedures.
