Having a colour scheme on your car which is similar to that of the patrolcars of the PDRM (Royal Malaysian Police) is a big no-no, as the owner of a Nissan Skyline has discovered. According to The Star, the car (a R32 model) was among the displays at a local autoshow and was seized by the PDRM.

The police also arrested the owner, who will face charges of unauthorised usage of the PDRM logo and livery. The arrest and seizure was confirmed by the Sepang District Police Chief, Assistant Commissioner Wan Kamarul Azran Wan Yusof, who also said that the car and owner were detained last night.

“We received information that the car belonging to the man which was placed in the autoshow resembled an official PDRM Mobile Patrol Vehicle. Acting on information about the car that was circulated on social media on Saturday, a team from the Sepang Criminal Investigation Division carried out observations and arrested the suspect who is the owner of the Skyline R32,” he explained.

It is understood that the owner of the car had been released on police bail. The case is being investigated under Section 89 of the Police Act 1967 for possessing items used by the PDRM to perform their duties. “Investigations are still ongoing by the police on the suspect who works as a car accessories dealer,” he added.
