police: putra heights suspension, nude squats lawsuit
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.
