NIBONG TEBAL: Internal Security and Public Order director Datuk Seri Salleh Mat Rasid yesterday launched a high-profile policing at the Sungai Bakap market and the Jalan Badak morning market, and dismissed rumours of racial riots in Sungai Petani.

He said people in Sungai Petani were going about their lives as usual and advised against spreading rumours about security being under any threat.

“Do not doubt the level of security in the country because we act not only in Sungai Petani but throughout the country,” he said.

It was alleged on Dec 16 that racial riots had taken place in Sungai Petani, but the police dismissed it as mere rumours. — Bernama
