Police suspected the 22-year-old man had pre-planned and launched the attack to get his hands on firearms kept at the station, but police have yet to ascertain the suspect's agenda behind the plan.

Razarudin said the suspect’s five family members had been arrested during a raid at their house. "I have also instructed the Special Branch to identify all JI members in Johor and pick them up for investigation," he told reporters in Johor.

Police have also arrested two students - one male aged 22 and one female aged 21 - who visited the station not long before the attack, which occurred at 2.45am.

According to Razarudin, the students went there on the pretext of getting police advice on a sexual assault they claimed happened about two years ago. When the two were lodging their reports, the attacker entered the station on a motorcycle and went straight to the rear side of the premises.

Seladang : Police must review the petrol bomb thrown at Minister of Housing & Local Government mother's s house in Perak and who is hiding Mrs Gandhi's daughter. PDRM must round up & arrest under Sosma all JI infiltrators.

Anwar must tone down his Hamas rhetoric less he stir more JI extremist coming out of the wood works with his Hamas gumption. All tafiz schools must be supervised by Ministry of Education and PDRM . PAS members must also be screened for allegiance to peaceful Malaysia.

AyuhMy : This is what happens when you do not prosecute hate preachers and sign off as NFA. You embolden these other freaks of society. This is what happens when you promote extremist religious schools and radical indoctrination.

This is what happens when you give PR to religious extremist and promote hamas..! This is what happens when you promote syariah and try to weaken constitutionally supreme secular law..!

You must come down hard on religious extremist wherever they are and strengthen secularism giving no place to religious extremists to propagate. You reap what you sow... Sad for the 2 police officers..

Sealthedeal : The religion of peace. Crazy Islamists are rampant in Malaysia. PAS breeds them.

GrayCondor1956 : Syabas! This is what you get when you bring terrorism into schools - telling students it’s ok to carry firearms. The dreadful act of PMX showing how close he is to Hamas and supporting them by allowing our country’s banking system to be used and transferring oil from tanker to tanker in our waters, tell these kids that violence is fine.

Don’t wait until worse things happen please. PMX open your mouth and nip this in the bud. For once be concerned about what is happening at home. You have to take the rap for the deteriorating situation in our country and put a stop to it. If you can’t please be at least honourable enough to resign.

Patriot Malaya : So PMX do you see where all the terror excitement you have caused has led to? What are you going to say now? Will you act against these Islamic extremists or will you continue to go around preaching about Islamophobia?

The hypocrisy can only be covered as long as there are no attacks and incidents but clearly that is changing. You will have to address this very real security issue.

NFSC8888 : Most RECENT 2024 terrorism in Malaysia: -petrol bomb on KK Mart -Mossad Operatives caught with gun in KL -Teror group Hamas blatantly announce to the world Kuala Lumpur will be Gateway for terorist Hamas into Asia.

-Then footballer are attacked by acid & rob -Petrol Bomb again on KL entertainent outlet -Latest Johor police station attacked by Jemmah Islamiyah terror group aiming for police station firearms! Why did terorism & extremism rear its ugly head & gaining momentum under Madani? Has it got to do with Madani that vehemently supported terorist Hamas???

On the Other Hand : This is what happens when Islamist fanatics are emboldened by PMX's support for HAMAS. Don't say we didn't warn you.

And the PDRM still has not caught the firebombers who firebombed Nga's house and tried to murder him and his wife in their sleep. Now two policemen are dead. The blame lies squarely in the lap of the PDRM and PMX for their and his inaction.

Vijay47 : At the end of the day, Anwar Ibrahim, all roads lead to Rome and you, and the chickens are coming home to roost. You can twist and turn, you can plead innocence and ignorance as you invariably do, but the responsibility for the JI police station attack ultimately falls on your shoulders with trickles flowing onto the IGP’s head.

Now you learn first hand the hard truth that heavy the head that wears the crown. You strove so earnestly to be viewed as a latter-day international Islamic leader, you seemed so enamoured with the attention showered on you by dubious characters like Erdogan and Haniyeh. How about other, more respected world leaders?

I don’t recall them greeting you with affection when in truth they merely humoured you. To use a crude comparison, where would you stand standing next to Lee Hsien Loong? Forget the rest of the world. Forget even that IGP. On the local front, your greatest failing, Anwar Ibrahim, is where religion is concerned.

For the prime minister of a multi-religious nation, you seem obsessed with Islam, which is understandable within reason. But your entire focus appears solely towards that direction – your statements, your tolerance, your fundings. Who do the non-Muslims have to turn to?

For all your fancy “elitist” turn of phrases, you have never convinced us “Semua anak saya”. Never. During the recent outbreak of religiously delicate controversies, you more often than not chose to be silent or came out with pathetic, insipid platitudes.

And your “Respect all religions especially Islam” is condemned to remain forever in history. If only you had issued tough warnings that cut across racial and religious lines, if only you had table-thumping promised you would brook no nonsense from anyone, they could have been warnings well heeded, serving to allay and assure the country. But Anwar Ibrahim remains Anwar Ibrahim.
