police: putra heights suspension, nude squats lawsuit
Posted on August 30th, 2006 by Nathaniel Tan
Three policemen have been suspended indefinitely for the video recorded beatings at the Putra Heights police station.
This move is a welcome sign that the police are serious about cleaning up their force. I hope they see that these efforts can exist side by side with, rather than in lieu of the IPCMC.
Also, if this is the effect a video recording has - why not install more CCTV’s in police stations?

The lady in the nude squat case, meanwhile, has filed a RM250,000 suit against the government.
Again, the lack of an IPCMC would expose the police to innumerably more suits and more importantly, episodes that give rise to such suits.
