“Not an official logo” – PDRM Probes Viral Video of Car With Lookalike Police Emblem Carrying Alleged Foreigners Inside

A recent video has been making its rounds online after a man claimed to have spotted a vehicle bearing a sticker that resembled the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) emblem.

In the video, the man could be seen confronting a vehicle transporting chickens and alleging that there were foreign nationals inside. The incident reportedly took place on 1 November at around 1:00 AM.

Dang Wangi District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Ahmad Azwan Amin Nordin has since clarified that the logo displayed on the private vehicle was not an official PDRM emblem, as reported by Kosmo!.

He said preliminary investigations found that the logo, while visually similar to the PDRM emblem, actually belonged to a legally registered charitable organisation called Nursiqah.

However, he added that the police are conducting further investigations to determine whether the use of the logo on the vehicle complies with existing laws or was intended to mislead the public.

Ahmad Azwan said that using logos resembling those of the security forces without permission could cause public confusion and affect the image and integrity of PDRM.

He also reminded the public not to make baseless speculations on social media that could interfere with the ongoing investigation.

“Anyone with information about the incident can contact the Kuala Lumpur Police Hotline at 03-2146 0522 or 03-2146 0585, the Dang Wangi District Police Headquarters Control Centre at 03-2600 2222, or head to the nearest police station.”
