In order to examine the laws, a comparison analysis is conducted with other selected jurisdictions, namely the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia. The findings of this research revealed that, the laws in Malaysia, particularly the Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) Act 2009 are insufficient in governing police misconduct. The research also revealed that there are many challenges and concerns in governing police misconduct. One of them is the delay of the punishment in passing the proposed Bill of Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission (IPCMC). In addition, two respondents have been interviewed in order to address the problems relating to the current laws governing this issue. The research suggests that the Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) Act 2009 needs to be reviewed in order to improve the governance of police misconduct. It is hoped that this research would assist the policy maker to review such law in Malaysia. 2013 Student Project NonPeerReviewed text en http://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/36075/1/36075.pdf Satar Aznee, Azriq Ezanie and Abd Munir, Muhammad Uzair and Mohd Anuar, Uza Najiera (2013) An analysis of the laws governing police misconduct in Malaysia / Azriq Ezanie Satar Aznee, Muhammad Uzair Abd Munir and Uza Najiera Mohd Anuar.
