Good timing! ...I agree with this brilliant article! Good timing! All the NGOs, Bar Council (particularly the newly-formed Huamn Rights Committee) and Suhakam must take up this issue seriously and investigate the cause of deaths of those detained as reported. In fact, I experienced it myself during the arrest on International Human Rights Day March on Dec 9th. last year. We had to sleep on a dirty wooden board and there were no slippers given, especially when going to the toilet, to prevent skin disease. Whilst waiting at the court cell in Kompleks Mahkamah Jln. Duta, myself and fellow detainee were tortured psychologically from going to the toilet since the toilet wall was only our knee’s height and hence, your activity could be watched from outside the cell. The nasty Special Branch officers purposely waited outside the cell and watched us menacingly, and hence we had to restrain ourselves for five hours from using the toilet until the lawyer arrives. And then demanded through the lawyer to use proper toilet outside. Isn’t this sexual violation of detainees? Further, I also saw many male detainees, especially foreign ones, being brought to court barefoot! I’ve referred all these issues to SUARAM and have yet to hear from them; and it seems like no one is taking this issue seriously. I’m pursuing this case further with another NGO, Women’s Affairs Dept. at Selangor’s State Office and Suhakam; because I’m more concerned about detainees who are not informed of their human rights and who might have uncaring lawyers to represent them.<BR/><BR/>Noor Aza Othman.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27256617.post-26220290991562791292008-07-17T16:44:00.000+08:002008-07-17T16:44:00.000+08:00Hopefully very soon those buch of monkeys will spe...Hopefully very soon those buch of monkeys will spent their time in there for good!!Francishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10525804053463341354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27256617.post-35350948073142614492008-07-17T15:13:00.000+08:002008-07-17T15:13:00.000+08:00iagree with your comment only to a certain extent,...iagree with your comment only to a certain extent, i.e per regarding<BR/>'In fact PM, DPM, Khairy and all MPs should spend a night in the police lock-ups and I am sure, that the following day there will be an emergency motion calling for this much-delayed improvement on lock-up conditions' what i disagree is they should not be let out, and the keys thrown away and let the police 'investigate' them and "find/fabricate" 'evidence' so they can spend the rest of their scum-eating days partaking the exquisite cuisine of his majesty's prison.artic turbanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10132672547702374553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27256617.post-56955958339582184982008-07-17T14:28:00.000+08:002008-07-17T14:28:00.000+08:00"In fact PM, DPM, Khairy and all MPs should spend ..."In fact PM, DPM, Khairy and all MPs should spend a night in the police lock-ups and I am sure, that the following day there will be an emergency motion calling for this much-delayed improvement on lock-up conditions..."<BR/><BR/>Maybe they wont for now but they may get a taste of it when there is a change of Govt........and hopefully soon !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
