Members of the public who will be leaving their homes during the upcoming Hari Raya are urged to fill up the 'balik kampung' form to facilitate police in their surveillance and patrolling activities.

Kajang police chief ACP Othman Nanyan said the public could obtain the form at any police station or download it from the official Royal Malaysia Police (RMP) website.

He said the form must be filled up and returned to any nearest station to enable the police to record details of the said property.

"In addition, we have also distributed the forms to the public at several areas around Kajang.

"We do not want any untoward incidents, including house break-in case, to take place when they are away celebrating Hari Raya at their hometowns," he told reporters after officiating the police district-level 9th Op Selamat' at Sungai Balak toll plaza here today.

He said a total of 1,167 police personnel from Kajang police headquarters would be on duty during Aidilfitri and would be stationed mostly at accident prone areas.
