The police have issued a tough warning against anyone who attempts to disturb the peace during the Thaipusam festival that begins tomorrow.
Penang Police chief Datuk Chuah Ghee Lye said the police would also give greater focus to the processions of the two chariots - one golden and the other silver - tomorrow and on Friday.
"We will also keep a close watch on gangsters, whether they are from Penang or outside the state, who may attempt to cause a disturbance," he said when contacted by Bernama.
Chuah gave the assurance that security control would be at its highest throughout the festival and that the public, especially Hindus, should have no fear of their safety.
He said more than 1,300 police officers and men would be operating round the clock, and more personnel would be deployed if the need arose. - BERNAMA
