Human Rights Party's pro-tem secretary general P Uthayakumar says the four were detained before any police investigation.
PETALING JAYA: Four teenagers have been detained unlawfully by the police since Tuesday, claimed Human Rights Party’s pro-tem secretary general P Uthayakumar.
The four were identified as R Rubanthiran 18, M Kaliswarar 16, M Tamilarasan 18 and V Mercs 17.
They were initially detained at a guard house at a housing area and then brought to the Klang Utara police station.
“They were beaten up and had to endure vulgar words by the police . This was done in order to force them to admit committing house breaking,” said Uthayakumar.
Following the detention, Rubanthiran’s uncle S Manoharan lodged a police report against Klang Utara OCPD ACP Shukur Sulong, investigating officer only known as Inspector Noor Kartini and Cpl Kumar respectively
Two of the four have been remanded today. They are Rubanthiran and Tamilarasan.
“The police released Kaliswarar and Mercs after I intervened. Unfortunately the police obtained a remand order for four days today on Rubanthiran and Tamilarasan,” said Uthayakumar who is also a lawyer.
When the police filed for a remand, the family members of the two teenagers were not allowed to be present in the court.
Uthayakumar criticised the police for arresting the boys without conducting any investigation on them.
“In this case, the police did zero investigations and according to Cpl Kumar, his instructions were to remand the two teenagers first before investigating,” said Uthayakumar.
He added that the police actions displayed their inefficiency in curbing crime and yet they were bullying young Indian youths.
