Hisham: Nakal sifatkan saya, Musa tegang (Malaysiakini 23/3/10)
Hishammuddin nafi dakwaan (Utusan Malaysia 24/3/10)
Hisham-Musa tak sengketa (Berita Harian 24/3/10)

Usaha pihak lagakan menteri dengan Ketua Polis Negara dibidas

Menteri Dalam Negeri, Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein menyifatkan dakwaan hubungan beliau dengan Ketua Polis Negara (KPN), Tan Sri Musa Hassan sebagai tegang adalah tidak berasas.

Beliau yang menyifatkan dakwaan itu ‘nakal’ berkata, tuduhan itu adalah cubaan mereka yang mahu melaga-lagakan pemimpin negara. “Jika sesuatu diulang beberapa kali, dan jika tidak ditangani, akhirnya masyarakat akan mempercayainya.

“Oleh kerana perkara itu telah dibangkitkan di Parlimen, hari ini (semalam) kami bertiga hadir untuk membuktikan apa yang digembar-gemburkan mereka tidak berasas langsung,” katanya pada sidang media selepas mengadakan perjumpaan dengan ahli makmal pengurusan warga asing di kementeriannya, di sini, semalam.

Majlis itu turut di dihadiri Musa dan Timbalan Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Ismail Omar, di sini, semalam.

Beliau mengulas dakwaan hubungannya dengan KPN tidak baik berikutan kenyataan Musa Ahad lalu, ada pihak ketiga campur tangan dalam tadbir urus pasukan polis.

Hishammuddin berkata, beliau sedih dengan dakwaan itu ketika maklumat balas daripada orang ramai terhadap pasukan polis pada masa ini memberangsangkan kerana indeks jenayah menunjukkan penurunan.

Musa pada majlis sama berkata, isu itu timbul berikutan laporan akhbar China Press, baru-baru ini kononnya beliau sudah menyerahkan surat meletak jawatan.

“Apabila pihak media jumpa saya dan bertanya mengenainya, saya jawab ia bukan daripada sumber rasmi.

“Jadi, jika tidak daripada sumber rasmi, maka ia tidak betul. Saya beranggapan jika perkara ini boleh dijadikan bahan spekulasi dan datang dari sumber bawah tanah, maka pasukan polis akan jadi kelam kabut.

“Maka, saya memetik Seksyen 4 Akta Polis, bahawa pentadbiran polis adalah di bawah kuasa dan kawalan KPN dan juga pegawai-pegawainya.

“Jadi, janganlah ada pihak ketiga yang cuba membuat spekulasi mengenai perkara ini. Itu yang saya jelaskan,” katanya yang menjelaskan hubungannya dengan Hishammuddin adalah baik.

Sementara itu di lobi Parlimen, di sini, Hishammuddin berkata, andai kata ada pihak ketiga seperti didakwa, ia tetap tidak menjejaskan agenda utama pihaknya untuk mengurangkan kadar jenayah.

“Hakikatnya, tiada masalah antara saya dan KPN. Kalau benar ada pergeseran antara kami, bagaimana pula indeks jenayah negara menurun. Tidak mungkin tahap prestasi bidang keberhasilan utama negara (NKRA) yang ditetapkan untuk kementerian ini dapat dicapai jika wujud perselisihan antara kami.

“Tunggulah sehingga sambutan Hari Polis Khamis ini (esok), kita akan umumkan pelbagai insentif dan penambahbaikan untuk pasukan polis,” katanya.

Hisham denies rift with IGP (The Sun 24/3/10)

Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein today denied there was a rift between him and Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan, saying their relationship is "as normal".

In answering a supplementary question from DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang in the Dewan Rakyat, the minister said the success in reducing street crimes and the crime index did not reflect such a rift.

Later, outside in the lobby, when approached by reporters to elaborate on what he said, Hishammuddin said: "No lah. There is no problem at all. (The relationship) is as normal.”

He said if the relationship between Musa and him was not close, there was no way the national security forces could reduce crime or move the National Key Results Area (NKRA) as planned.

A series of events seems to have contributed to talk that the relationship between the two was not all that rosy.

On March 13, a vernacular newspaper had published a report that Musa had submitted his resignation letter. Both Musa and Hishammuddin denied the report and the newspaper was issued a show-cause letter.

Two days later, Hishammuddin hinted that Musa would be replaced together with four other directors who were slated for retirement this year, and that the government would dictate the timing.

On March 21, in an interview published in Mingguan Malaysia, Musa insinuated third-party interference and attempts to undermine police leadership.

He said the third party could be politicians or certain individuals.

Musa, whose contract ends this September, also claimed that there were “some quarters” that “wanted to rush” him into leaving his position as the IGP.

In response, Hishammuddin said police should investigate such an interference if there was one, and that Musa had not spoken to him about it.

Today, in replying to Lim in the House, Hishammuddin said should there be any “third party” in the police force as reportedly claimed by Musa, it will not affect the ministry’s main agenda to realise its Key Performance Indicators (KPI).

“Don’t get mixed up between the six National Key Results Areas (NKRA) and the ministry’s KPI,” he said.

Lim had asked about the ministry’s KPI and the supposedly strained relationship between him and Musa since Hishammuddin has said he was not aware of the presence of “third party” as claimed by Musa.

Lim urged Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak to intervene to end the spat between the two men, as it did not augur well for national security.

He later told reporters that although the “spat” between the two was “framed in very polite and indirect language”, it was apparent there was a communication breakdown.

The Ipoh-Timor MP said if necessary, Musa should resign or Hishammuddin should step down as a minister to mend the situation.

Yesterday, Musa told reporters who attended a special media conference for Police Day (Picture below courtesy of The Sun).
