Musa Hassan: Sanjeevan terlalu lantang

Musa Hassan: Sanjeevan terlalu lantang

KUALA LUMPUR:  Bekas Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Musa Hassan menyifatkan pengerusi Pasukan Bertindak Pemantau Jenayah Malaysia (NGO) My Watch, R Sri Sanjeevan terlalu lantang hingga ada pihak mengambil keputusan menembak beliau.

Katanya beliau pernah menasihatkan Sanjeevan agar tidak terlalu lantang dan menyelesaikan beberapa isu dengan saluran yang sepatutnya.

"Sanjeevan ini terlalu lantang, saya pernah nasihatkan dia kalau ada maklumat pergi ke MACC, kalau nak kerjasama dengan polis, buat cara yang betul, kerjasama dengan polis yang dia percaya, serah kepada mereka untuk ambik tindakan, tetapi dia buat pematauan sendiri, dia di Jempol buat pemantauan dan mendapat ugutan," katanya kepada Astro AWANI.

Musa menasihatkan semua badan bukan kerajaan (NGO) menggunakan saluran yang betul jika berhasrat menyalurkan maklumat berkaitan jenayah di negara ini.

Katanya, pihak yang terlibat dengan NGO berkaitan jenayah perlu sedar bahawa mereka perlu mematuhi peruntukan undang-undang sedia ada dan perlu mengikut prosedur.

Mengulas mengenai peranannya dalam MyWatch, Musa berkata dia hanyalah penaung NGO tersebut dan sentiasa mengikut prosedur jika mempunyai maklumat.

"Saya sendiri kalau lantang atau berterus terang nanti orang kata saya ni anti kerajaan, saya anti polis, saya bekas polis, saya sayang pasukan polis.

"Sebab itu saya cakap kalau nak naikkan imej polis atau pulihkan persepsi masyarakat terhadap polis, ia boleh dibaiki oleh anggota polis sendiri, kalau dia jujur, ikhlas orang akan percaya, itu saja," katanya.

Musa mengulas kejadian tembak yang melibatkan pengerusi MyWatch, Sanjeevan berhampiran Taman Cempaka di Negeri Sembilan Sabtu lalu.

Dalam kejadian tersebut, Sanjeevan cedera parah akibat ditembak dua lelaki bermotosikal ketika memandu keretanya untuk minum petang bersama seorang rakan.

Mangsa kini dilaporkan berada dalam keadaan kritikal dan berada di Hospital Serdang untuk menjalani pembedahan mengeluarkan peluru selepas dipindahkan dari Hospital Tunku Jaafar, Kuala Pilah. -- Astro Awani

The thinnest Android - The Ascend P6, priced at RM1,399





Huawei has launched the Ascend P6 smartphone which runs on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and is said to be the thinnest smartphone on the market, at just 6.18mm thick.

In spite of its thin profile, the P6 is packed with features and runs on a Hi-silicon K3V2 1.5GHz quad-core processor and has a 4.7in (1,280 x 720-pixels) display.

However, while the phone supports UMTS and GSM and can work at HSPA+ speeds, it does not support the newer LTE networks.

Apart from how thin it is, the P6 comes with an 8-megapixel camera on the back and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, which is possibly the highest megapixel count for a front-facing camera in smartphones.

Huawei is pricing the P6 very competitively at RM1,399 and stocks are available now in white and black while a pink version is due to appear in October.

How to prevent food poisoning



Sometimes we don't really know what goes into our body until the obvious signs of food poisoning take place.

It's a health concern that has affected us all at one point or another. With Malaysia being a heaven for good food, we are prone to suffer from the occasional effects of food contamination. The cause is food-borne microbes which can lead to nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, dehydration, abdominal cramps and fever.

Having said that, you are as likely to get ill from food prepared at home as the ones you eat outside. Unfortunately, there isn't a way to spot bacteria on food but you can take some simple steps to prevent or reduce incidences of food poisoning.

Wash hands thoroughly

When handling food, it is important that we keep our hands as clean as possible. Cross contamination can happen when the cooked food that you are handling comes into contact with raw meat and poultry. Thus, you should wash hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds, most especially when handling raw meat, eggs and seafood.

Separate raw meat

This is an important aspect in preventing food contamination. So keep raw meat away from ready-to-cook foods such as salad, fruits and bread. These foods can become contaminated when come into direct contact with raw foods or the drippings from raw foods. If thawing in the fridge, always cover raw meat and store it on the bottom shelf to avoid the said problems.

Keep your fridge below 5°C

Foods need to be refrigerated or chilled at the proper temperature to stop the food-borne bacteria and organisms from growing. Any level of temperatures between 4°C and 60°C will encourage them to grow rapidly, so always check that temperature is below 5°C. Also, refrigerated foods must not be left sitting out at room temperature for more than two hours.

Use different chopping board

Harmful microbes can easily transfer from raw foods to other foods, most especially when it comes into contact with anything they touch like worktops, plates, knives, utensils and cutting boards. It is recommended that you use separate boards for raw food, vegetables and bread. This will prevent cross contamination from occurring.

Cook food thoroughly

The surest way to kill off bacteria is to cook food all the way through. Certain foods like poultry, pork, beef and eggs should be cooked completely until steaming hot. Many of the nasty organisms thrive in these foods while raw, so cook meat until it is no longer pink inside, and the egg yolks and whites are firm. Use a food thermometer if you need to.
