KUALA LUMPUR: The policeman who was shot three times in the heist at the KL International Airport will be questioned over the incident.

Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said they would talk to L/Kpl Zainuddin Mat Isa, 39, to gather more information on the RM3.5mil robbery near the departure hall.

“The policeman is now warded at the Putrajaya Hospital and we will record his statement as soon as he recovers,” Musa said, adding that a manhunt has been launched for the robbers.

L/Kpl Zainuddin, from the CID division of the Putrajaya district police headquarters, was shot in his left thigh and in both hands.

Musa also said that he had ordered the Internal Security and Public Order Department to beef up police presence at KLIA.

“There will be 12 General Operations Force personnel on 24-hour guard at the departure and arrival halls at the airport,” he added after signing a memorandum of understanding between Universiti Malaysia and the police on crime and law courses for police officers in Bukit Aman yesterday.
