"Supercop" DSP Kulasingam

Supercop  DSP Kulasingam
1930-2007 

 "How could I die of anything but old age?"  
                                                 DSP Kulasingam


"DSP Kulasingam. He rose to fame when he was assigned to capture the most notorious criminal in Malaysian history, Botak Chin. A bachelor, DSP Kulasingam dedicated his life to the police force. A mere mention of his name will make criminals tremble in fear, knowing DSP Kulasingam track record."
 “The first attempt [on his life] was in 1975. He had stopped at a traffic light junction when 11 shots were fired at him. One of the bullets shattered his right rib, pierced his liver, and grazed his lungs.
“On April 7, 1976, Kula was shot in the stomach during a robbery at a jewellery shop in Paramount Gardens, Petaling Jaya. 
He also survived when a 44-pound jar of formic acid was splashed on his legs and chest;when a tree fell, killing a helper instead;when an axe-wielding man rushed at him;and when a patrol car in Sarawak was ambushed and another officer with the same name as him was killed.”
