KUALA LUMPUR, July 26 (Bernama) -- The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) Special Actions Unit (UTK) sniper team did the nation proud by clinching two awards at the Sharp Blade 2025 International Sniper Competition in China.
In a Facebook post, PDRM said the UTK sniper team won the Best Teamwork award and a silver medal in the Drone Assisted Sniping event during the competition held in Urumqi, Xinjiang, from July 13 to 19.
“The team, comprising two senior officers and four junior police officers (operatives), made their first appearance in the competition and competed against 55 teams from 26 countries.
“This success not only elevates PDRM’s prestige on the international stage but also strengthens UTK’s reputation as a world-class elite unit,” the post read.
The outstanding achievement clearly reflects the tactical agility, technological proficiency and high level of preparedness of UTK personnel in handling operational challenges and pressure.
PDRM added that the team’s debut in the international competition also served as a motivational boost for the Sang Saka Biru squad to continue striving for excellence and remain competitive on the global stage.
