KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 12 — The police will set up roadblocks throughout the country after midnight as a safety measure, said Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Razarudin Husain.
The move is to ensure the safety and security of the public.
He added that setting roadblocks is a normal monthly routine.
“The public need not worry or panic. The public should not associate the setting up of roadblocks to the decision of the state election results in six states tonight,” Razarudin told reporters during a special media conference at Bukit Aman earlier this evening.
The election results of six states — Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Penang, Kelantan, Terengganu and Kedah — are expected to be announced tonight.
