In the Suntec brawl case involving the 3 FTs and the taxi driver, the IO gave the same excuse. But the main reason was that the IO bo-chaped. I agree that this IO should be investigated and criminal charges should be laid against him.
Is the Station Inspector trying to kelong the case by purposely appearing to be incompetent?
He should be investigated for his actions and thrown out of the Force. SPF must take action against him, failing which, a repeat of his substandard investigations will put the Force in very bad light.
CP should personally look into this and not sweep this under his carpet.
Disgraceful makan-pau...... pui pui
