Deliberately knocking down cop? How lower could the perception of police be?

What do you expect?

When the leaders are not respecting basic rules, laws and regulations, do you expect the other classes of citizen to follow suit?

I put this offense squarely on the failures of the ruling governance of the country's failure in establishing a consistent implementation of rules and regulations for each and everyone of the citizen. Definitely nobody is above the law, and there should have been a few sets of different rules to different sets of citizen.

We have the so-called 'small timers' being caught for small and in-significant offences, yet we have those associated to the executives getting away with anything. A lower ranked clerk being caught and handed pusnishing sentences while a member of the executives getting away all the times even when the evidences of mal-practice being highlited by loads of different media. A former chief minister's (who is close to the executives) failure to declare his loads of money when caught in a foreign nation is brushed aside, but, why wasn't there a follow-up to determined how he managed to gather those riches serving as a public servant? How could they act on a former deputy prime minister who has fallen out of favour with multiple trumped-up charges?

Your guess is as good as mine.

This rebelious act like the one mentioned in this news article below will keep on persisting, for as long as no REAL law and order is in place! Especially with the police force being perceived as a tool to enforce the continuity of a failing regime and to continuosly supress those who are a problem to the ruling institution!

4WD driver deliberately knocks down cop after getting summons

PETALING JAYA: Angry at being summoned for illegal parking, a motorist not only tore the road tax disc of his vehicle in front of a policeman but knocked him down as well.

Shouting curses, the 36-year-old man had rushed back to his Isuzu 4WD which was obstructing part of Jalan Kenari in Puchong Jaya at 3.15pm on Friday.

After failing to convince Kons Norzaharuddin Hashim, 24, not to issue the summons, he got into the vehicle, peeled off the disc from the windscreen and tore it into bits.

He then drove into the policeman before speeding off.

Subang Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Mohd Fuad Talib said Kons Norzaharuddin was on his crime beat in the area when he spotted the illegally-parked 4WD.

“As there was no one inside whom he could ask to remove the vehicle, Kons Norzaharuddin proceeded to write a summons.

“When he was jotting down the number plate, he heard the vehicle owner shouting at him.

“When attempts to coax the policeman to not issue the summons failed, the owner rushed into his vehicle and took out the road tax disc and tore it in front of Kons Norzaharuddin.

“He then started the engine and knocked down the Kons Norzaharuddin before speeding off,” ACP Mohd Fuad told reporters after attending a Rakan COP function and crime prevention dialogue with residents of Bandar Kinrara Puchong.

Kons Norzaharuddin is due to undergo a minor operation on both legs at the University Malaya Medical Centre.

Police have established the identity of the driver and are currently looking for him.
