“The Government has made it clear, that in our disciplined services, we have a ‘one-strike and you are out’ policy on serious issues.

Report officers involved in SABLs: Minister

Minister for Police, Jelta Wong, said he issued a statement last year that police should not be used to intimidate or harass landowners, and that stance has not changed.

Following his appointment last year, Minster Wong said police are not to interfere in SABL matters.

He also said the National Executive Council Decision of 187/2014 to revoke and cancel all SABLs was in force and there should not be any such operation.

“The stance is still the same. I put out a statement when I was one month into the job. I said that no policemen will be in those SABL areas.
