Three special committees set up to investigate allegations of police
brutality during the Bersih 2.0 illegal demonstration on July 9 have
completed their reports which will be tabled to the Cabinet soon.Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said although he personally felt that the reports should be made public, it was up to the Cabinet to decide whether to do so or otherwise.
“In his issue, I would like to remind the police not to be biased. What is right, is right. What is wrong, is wrong. They must hold on to the standard operating procedures.
“If there are certain quarters who did not adhere to the procedures, they should be disclosed,” he said after meeting with former Inspectors-General and Deputy Inspectors-General of Police, including Haniff Omar, Norain Mai and Hussin Ismail, at his office here today.
Also present were Deputy Inspector-General of Police Khalid Abu Bakar and Home Ministry secretary-general Mahmood Adam.
Bukit Aman had set up the special committees to investigate six allegations of police brutality during the illegal demonstration in Kuala Lumpur.
On today’s meeting, Hishammuddin said it was aimed at finding ways to empower the police force, including looking into the welfare of the police personnel.
