KUALA LUMPUR: A video has been posted on the internet since March 3 this year showing how a prisoner was caned with rotan until his skins split with blood. Entitled: "Malaysia Caning Judicial Corporal Punishment" and captioned "This link was posted by one of our fellow leakers. Thought it was pretty good, but does anyone know what happened to cause this?", the video did not reveal the location of the prison and the time it was taken. However, the prison grounds appear to be in Malaysia looking at the uniform worn by the officers. It also appears that those present were aware that the whole episode was being filmed. It is quite a gory scene, and please do not click on the link if you find it offensive. **taken from the Malaysian Bar website
