Tan Sri Datuk Seri Panglima Mohd Bakri bin Mohd Zinin (born 7 September 1954^{[citation needed]}) is a former Malaysian police officer who served as Deputy Inspector-General of Police (DIG), from May 2013 to his retirement in September 2014.^[1] He was the first Sabahan to become DIG.^[1]

Early life

Mohd Bakri was born on 7 September 1954 in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

Police career

Beginning

Mohd Bakri began his police career on 6 November 1976, starting as an Administrative Inspector at the Tuaran District Headquarters in Sabah.^{[citation needed]}

He progressed through the ranks, serving as District Police Chief in Kudat, Sandakan, Lahad Datu, and Cheras. His skills were not confined to districts; he also held Deputy District Police Chief positions in Kota Kinabalu and Seremban.^{[citation needed]}

National recognition

In 2010, while holding the position Federal Criminal Investigation Department (CID) director, Mohd Bakri led the investigation and apprehension of suspects involved in the disappearance of local cosmetic millionaire Datuk Sosilawati Lawiya and her three aides: her personal driver, Kamaruddin Shamsudin, financial consultant at CIMB Bank Kampung Baru Branch, Noorhisham Mohammad, and her lawyer, Ahmad Kamil Abdul Karim.

The San-Diego Union Tribune on their article in 15 September 2010 describing the case has "exploded into a full-scale media sensation."^[2]

A task force named Ops Jejak^[3]^[4] was established on September 6, 2010, led by Dato' Hadi Ho bin Abdullah, the Deputy Director of the CID (Investigation/Operations). ^[5]

The other teams:

Chief Assistant Director of CID D9 Division (Special Investigations)
D8 Division (Special Operations) from Bukit Aman
D9 Division (Special Investigations) from Contingent Police Headquarters ("Ibu Pejabat Polis Kontinjen, or IPK, in Malay.) of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor
Criminal Investigation Department
Commercial Crime Investigation Department
Forensics
Special Branch
Traffic
Air Unit
Marine Operations Force
Selangor and Kuala Lumpur Police

Some agencies and departments such as the Fire and Rescue Department, Chemistry Department, Mineral and Geoscience Department, Kuala Langat District Council, Syabas, and hospital entities, especially the Pathology Unit has assisted the team as well.

This led to several arrests until 13 October 2010, where four suspects were charged in court under Section 302 of the Penal Code read together with Section 34 of the Penal Code.

Former lawyer N. Pathmanabhan, 47, and three other field workers – R. Matan^[6], 26, T. Thilaiyalagan, 25, and R. Kathavarayan, 37, – were sentenced to death by the Shah Alam High Court on 23 May 2013.

In 16 March 2017, Chief Justice Arifin Zakaria, who led a panel of five judges, rejected ^[7]^[8] the final appeal of Pathmanabhan, Thilaiyalagan, and Kathavarayan; while upheld the conviction and death sentence of former lawyer N. Pathmanabhan and two of his farm hands. Matan escaped the gallows after the Federal Court allowed his appeal to set aside his conviction and death sentence as there was insufficient evidence against Matan.

The Chief Justice described it as his most memorable case, that the Sosilawati murder trial was only the second, after the Sunny Ang Soo Suan murder case in 1965, which the court had relied upon circumstantial evidence to convict the accused without finding the body of the victim.

Moving on

Mohd Bakri went on to distinguish himself further, serving as Sabah Deputy Police Commissioner. He led the Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department in 2007, and he transitioned the following year to Director of the Criminal Investigation Department, a role he held with distinction until 2013.^{[citation needed]}

He was promoted to Deputy Inspector-General of Police in 2013^[9] along with Tan Sri Dato' Sri Khalid Bin Abu Bakar as Inspector-General of Police. The handover ceremony happened on 16 May 2013 at the Police Training Center (Pulapol) Jalan Semarak in Kuala Lumpur.

Retirement

Mohd Bakri retired on 6 September 2014^[1].

On September 5^[9], there was a handover and farewell ceremony at the Security Hall, Pulapol. He passed the role to Mohamad Fuzi Harun, who acted as the Deputy Inspector-General of Police. (Datuk Seri Noor Rashid Ibrahim later took over from Mohamad Fuzi on December 1^[10].)

In his farewell speech, Bakri expressed his commitment to staying connected to the world of policing even in retirement, stating, "once a policeman, always a policeman."

Mohd Bakri attended his farewell ceremony ("Paluan Berundur" in Malay) at the Parade Square, in the same location. Also in the attendance were former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Norian Mai, the lineup of PDRM Directors, various layers of PDRM personnel, and media colleagues.

Honours

Mohd Bakri's achievements in his work awarded him the second-most senior federal title in 2014^[11], and the highest state (Sabah) title in the same year^{[citation needed]} with "Tan Sri^[11] Datuk Seri Panglima" before his name. His wife may carry “Puan Sri Datin Seri Panglima^[12]” before her name.
