Malaysians are about to welcome a new Inspector-General of Police (IGP) as the current IGP, Tan Sri Razarudin Husain, is scheduled to step down from the position this Sunday (June 22).
Razarudin confirmed that he will not be renewing his contract to fulfil his mother’s wishes.
The IGP also cited his 86-year-old mother as the key reason why he decided not to renew his contract, to which he respected his mother’s “command.”
Razarudin was appointed in June 2023 on a two-year contract following his retirement, replacing Tan Sri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani as Malaysia’s 14th Inspector-General of Police.
“A mother’s words are prayers, I wouldn’t want to go against it,” he told reporters at the IGP Madani 2025 Village Adoption Harmony Programme in Kampung Parit Seberang yesterday (June 15).
He said he had conveyed his decision to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and believed it was time for someone new to take over. Razarudin’s mother, Rahmah Abdul Rahman, also attended the event with him, reported Sinar Harian.
“There’s no need for me to renew my contract. Two terms are enough for me, and it’s time someone takes the mantle.”
Who do you think should replace Razarudin as the new IGP?
