: The Housing and Local Government Ministry is leaving it to the family of the late Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim to take civil action against the police over their alleged negligence to prevent incidents that led to the firefighter’s death.
“Muhammad Adib’s family did not meet me, it’s just that they and the people want justice for Adib. We do not know the cause of death, that’s why we need to see that justice is served,“ he told reporters after visiting the Meru Raya Fire and Rescue Station, here today. On Sept 27 last year, the Shah Alam Coroner’s Court ruled that the firefighter’s death was the result of a crime committed by more than two or more unknown persons.
Meanwhile, asked on the KPKT’s proposal to increase the allowance for auxiliary firefighters, he said the matter had been discussed at the ministry level.
