SUPP Public Complaints Bureau (SPCB) was recently approached by a father staying at Batu Kawa for his advice and assistance on a threatening message that his son received for payment of RM14,000.00.
Following the request for advice and assistance received, SPCB Chief, Wilfred Yap interviewed the father and his son and the son informed that he never borrowed any money from anyone and that he did borrow any money from the person who called his elder brother for payment. The son informed that it was his elder brother who received the threatening message that he must pay the RM14,000.00.
Upon hearing the son’s story, SUPP Public Complaints Bureau brought the father and his two sons to the police station to lodge police reports for the police to conduct proper investigations into the matter.
SUPP Public Complaints Bureau would like to advice the public that if they receive any threatening/abusive/offensive messages, they should not be afraid and suffer in silence but report the matter to the nearest police station. The police will be able to confirm whether an offence have been committed based on the full facts and the individual circumstances or situation. The police after the report is made will be able to investigate and deal with the matter professionally in accordance with the law.
SUPP Public Complaints Bureau would also like to advice the public not to take matters into their own hands but to respect the law.
SUPP Public Complaints Bureau is always ready to lend a helping hand to the anyone facing problems or who come across problems of public interest but does not know how to deal with it. Anyone requiring assistance can always call SUPP Public Complaint’s mobile number at 016-7797688 or 082-246999 or go direct to SUPP Head Office to request for assistance.
