Death in police custody – Saiful Azmi b. Mohammad (2 September 2007) PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 02 September 2009 08:15am
Two years ago today Saiful Azmi b. Mohammad reportedly died at Ampang Hospital after he had been arrested on 31 August and was then admitted to the Hospital in a coma later that same day.

Despite the requirement that all custodial deaths be investigated by inquiries conducted pursuant to Chapter XXXII of the Criminal Procedure Code, it is not clear that an inquest has been conducted into Saiful Azmi b. Mohammad’s death.

Every death in custody must be thoroughly and impartially investigated.  Saiful Azmi b. Mohammad’s death must not be relegated to a mere statistic.

Based on the Royal Malaysia Police’s statistics, 85 persons died in police custody between 2003 and 2007 alone.

We express our heartfelt condolences to Saiful Azmi b. Mohammad’s family and friends on this anniversary of his death.
