Kuala Belait - A policeman charged with breaking into the Crime Investigation Department (CID) in Kuala Belait and stealing wallets containing just over $23,000 was released on bail of $25,000 or two local sureties yesterday.

The decision was made by the Bandar Magistrate's Court after the defendant, 29 year-old L/Cpl Abd Razak Abd Rahim made a retraction of his guilty plea.

However, the court will be handing out its ruling tomorrow whether the defendant is allowed to retract his earlier plea of guilty towards the charges and re-enter a plea of not guilty.

According to the prosecution, Abd Razak was the assistant investigating officer in a gambling raid and broke into the CID evidence storeroom and stole 25 wallets containing the money which were seized in the raid earlier. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin

What a shameful police personnel? Can't he do an honest and clean job. He is a policeman and should know the regulations.

Ani baru bagus nama nya..Polis tangkap polis nda memilih sesiapa saja buat salah, orang awam kah ia, polis kah ia, apa kah ia...Ini adalah contoh terbaik bagi jabatan penguatkuasa di Brunei ani..Kalau boleh jabatan penguatkuasa yang lain mengikut jejak langkah polis ani..Siasat orang dalam atu jua yang membuat salah atu, jangan orang awam saja..Ani dalam berita kebanyakkan jabatan penguatkuasa menangkap lah, menahan lah, macam-macam lah, tapi payah kan mendangar orang durang sendiri kana tangkap nda macam polis..Syabas polis..
