Section 9
Interdiction
of Royal Brunei Police Force (Disciplinary Proceedings) Regulations, 2021
(1)
If in any case the Commission considers that the public interest requires that a senior police officer should cease to exercise the powers and functions of his office, the Commission may recommend to His Majesty the
Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan that the senior police officer be interdicted from the exercise of the powers and functions of his office, provided that criminal or disciplinary proceedings are being instituted or contemplated.
(2)
Subject to regulation 12(1), a senior police officer who has been interdicted may be allowed to receive a minimum of 50 per cent of the salary of his office for such period during the period of interdiction as His Majesty the
Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan shall think fit or His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan may order the withholding of his total salary.
(3)
If the proceedings against a senior police officer do not result in the dismissal or any other punishment of the senior police officer, he shall be entitled to the full amount of the salary which he would have received had he not been interdicted.
(4)
If the punishment is other than dismissal, the senior police officer may be refunded such portion of the salary withheld as a result of his interdiction as
His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan shall think fit.
