KELANTAN POLICE WILL DEPLOY 3,030 OFFICERS AND MEN AT MANIK URAI
KOTA BAHARU, June 29 (Bernama) -- Some 3,030 police officers and men will be deployed at Manik Urai by-election starting from nomination day on July 6 until polling day on July 14.
Kelantan police chief SAC I Datuk Abdul Rahim Hanafi said the first group of about 1,200 men or 40 percent would be dispatched just before nomination day.
"The deployment will be made in six batches with the final one just after polling day," he said at a Lions Club function here today.
On campaign permits, Abdul Rahim said they would be issued by Kuala Krai police chief but as state police chief, he could cancel campaigns that contravene the rules.
"We have yet to issue campaign permits to political parties. However, gathering permits have been issued to the constesting parties," he added.
