The mother of deceased police detainee Kugan Ananthan today filed a suit against the police over the seizure of items from the office of an Universiti Malaya Medical Centre (UUMC) pathologist.
The suit was filed by N Indra at the Kuala Lumpur High Court this morning.
Previously, the family's lawyer N Surendran had said that the family wants the specimens of organ parts, photographs and other materials returned.
"The family wants the pathologist to send the specimens to Australia to determine if there were traces of poison in the tissues," he had added.
The police raided the office of Dr Prashant N Sambekar at the UMMC on April 6 and seized the specimens after a search warrant was produced to the hospital authorities.
Federal CID director Mohd Bakri Zinin was quoted as saying the documents obtained from the hospital would be used as evidence in police investigations.
Kugan, 22, died on Jan 20 at the Taipan police station, five days after he was arrested in connection with a car theft case.
The family has since accused the police of foul play.
