Another FOUR(4) shot dead by police - when they should be arrested... How many extrajudicial killings have there been in 2024.
Police shot dead a fourth wanted criminal in a shootout at a building on Jalan Undan, near the Inanam Bus Terminal, here early this morning.
Sabah Criminal Investigation Department (CID) head Datuk Azmi Abdul Rahim said the 59-year-old suspect is believed to be connected to the three criminals who were shot dead in Beverly Hill, Bundusan, Penampang on Tuesday night.
What is 'sickening' is how the police/government speedily claim that the deceased were 'bad persons' involved in crimes >> BUT that does not in any way justify the 'KILLING' - when police really only can arrest.
We hear the 'police version' of what happened > but we never hear what the CORONER decided after investigation/inquiry into the death - Did the Coroner find the police(or anyone) CRIMINAL LIABLE for the Deaths.
Since, Police can ONLY ARREST and not KILL - all police officers involved in the killing should be immediately charged in court for the killing... and, in Court, they can put forward whatever DEFENCE or Justification they have - and it is up to the Court, after TRIAL, to determine GUILT or INNOCENCE... But, then why is the Public Prosecutor not charging these police officers in court...
on 31/5/2023 that the coroner’s court, presided by Coroner Rasyihah Ghazali, for ‘police shooting that resulted in death of 3, ‘…. concluded that there was abuse of power and elements of a criminal nature in the death of three men who were shot at close range by police three years ago. “The shots were not fired in self-defense. There was abuse of power and (actions in the nature of) criminal elements by police in the death of the men,”… She said police witnesses gave evidence that shots were fired at the men from an upright position but post-mortem reports stated that the bullets pierced their bodies at a downward angle. … “The weapons described by the ballistic expert (Izzuwan Marzuki) and the investigating officer (P Visvanathan) were also in conflict,” (FMT, 31/5/2023)
REMEMBER, only Court determines after a FAIR Trial whether the police officers are GUILTY or NOT GUILTY. It is not the Police, Minister or even Public Prosecutor that decides.Is it the Malaysian Government policy to 'protect police' and not even charge them if they KILLED someone?
The COURT may at the end of the day find the police officers GUILTY of the crimes of causing death(i.e. Murder, Culpable Homicide Not Amounting To Murder, Unintentional Killing, etc..) - if it was a LEGITIMATE Self Defence, the Court will accept it and the officer may be found not guilty...
HOME MINISTER - tell us what was the CORONER's finding in all the cases of police shooting dead instead of arresting?
HOME MINISTER/PRIME MINISTER - explain WHY were police officers who shot dead persons instead of arresting them CHARGED in Court - It is the Court that will decide whether their 'defence' of SELF DEFENCE is accepted or not..
WE DO NOT WANT POLICE OFFICERS WHO ABUSE THEIR POWERS AND KILL PEOPLE....

Sabah police kill fourth suspect in morning shootout in Inanam after Tuesday’s Beverly Hill raid
KOTA KINABALU, Dec 5 — Police shot dead a fourth wanted criminal in a shootout at a building on Jalan Undan, near the Inanam Bus Terminal, here early this morning.
Sabah Criminal Investigation Department (CID) head Datuk Azmi Abdul Rahim said the 59-year-old suspect is believed to be connected to the three criminals who were shot dead in Beverly Hill, Bundusan, Penampang on Tuesday night.
Azmi said acting on information, police from the D9 Special Investigation Division of the Sabah Police Contingent Headquarters (IPK) raided the building at 1.45am.
“As police raided the building, the suspect opened fire, which prompted the raiding team to return fire in self-defence.
“The suspect was killed at the scene,” Azmi said when met at the site.
He revealed that the wanted suspect was from Sarawak.
“We believe this suspect was also involved in several criminal cases, including murder cases, in Sarawak.
“With the killing of these four suspects, police believe we have eliminated all the wanted suspects,” he said.
However, he added the police are still conducting further investigations.

Indonesia police involved in 31 extrajudicial killings: rights group

Amnesty recorded at least 116 cases of alleged police violence between January and November this year, including 29 cases of extrajudicial killings resulting in 31 fatalities.
One of the latest cases was in late November when a police officer allegedly shot and killed a student in Semarang, Central Java. An officer has been detained over the case.
The case garnered national attention after local police claimed an officer had taken the action to disperse a student brawl, but Central Java police's head of internal affairs Aris Supriyono told lawmakers in a hearing last week that the shooting was not connected with dispersing a brawl.
Cases of police violence, which include torture, improper use of tear gas and arbitrary arrests, showed the lack of systemic progress in reform of the Indonesian police, said Amnesty Indonesia's executive director Usman Hamid.
"If added with a series of police violence widely discussed by the public, it is clear that this year, 2024, does not show any improvement in the police's system," Usman said.
The National Police did not immediately respond to AFP's request for comment.
Amnesty also recorded other cases of police violence throughout the same period, including, 28 cases of intimidation and physical violence as well as 26 cases of torture.
More than 500 people were subject to police violence including arbitrary arrest, physical violence and improper use of tear gas between August 22 and 29 during demonstrations against changes to election rules in 14 cities across the archipelago, Amnesty recorded.
"This showed how policing currently becomes authoritarian-repressive, not democratic-humanist policing as promised or mandated by law," Usman said.
