Career

Beginning August 2013, Mazlan served as deputy director of PDRM's Criminal Investigation Department (CID) in-charge of intelligence and operations.[9]

In May 2016, Mazlan was transferred to the Malaysian Borneo state of Sarawak as its new police commissioner, taking over from Muhammad Sabtu Osman who returned as director of PDRM's Internal Security and Public Order Department (ISPOD).[10] After slightly more than a year as Sarawak police commissioner, Mazlan was then appointed as Selangor police chief effective July 7, 2017 to replace the retiring Abdul Samah Mat.[11][12]

Effective February 11, 2019, Mazlan was appointed to head PDRM's CCID as its director, taking over from acting director Saiful Azly Kamaruddin who was temporarily filling in for the retired Amar Singh Ishar Singh.[13][14][15][16] He continued heading the Selangor police contingent for a brief period before his successor, Noor Azam Jamaludin, took over.[17][18] Mazlan was elevated as DIG effective May 9, 2019 following the retirement of Noor Rashid Ibrahim, with acting DIG Abdul Hamid Bador assuming the post of IGP.[19][20]

Mazlan went on mandatory retirement from the PDRM effective August 14, 2020, ending a 41-year career in the police force.[21][22][23][24]
