PKR, DAP & PAS: No call for Royal Commission for 5 police murders of Indian youths, 17 year old
One rule for Teoh Beng Hock who after intense public pressure led by PKR, DAP and PAS got a Royal commission within one week and even his body was ordered by the court to be exhumed by court and a foreign (Thai) pathologist whose qualification is not even recognized in Malaysia has no objections from even the Attorney General to examine Teoh’s body (Malay Mail 11/11/2009 at page 3).
But another rule for the hundreds of Indians who are killed in police lockups or simply shot dead by the police force especially these five Indian youths aged 24, 22, 21, 19 and especially the 17 year old juvenile. There is no Royal Commission of Inquiry called.
To add insult to injury the Federal CID chief Datuk Seri Bakri Zinin has the cheek to make a statement that the police “fired in self defence (NST 11/11/2009 at page 20 and Tamil Nesan Headlines on 11/11/2009) Why aren’t the top leaders and the 82 PKR, DAP and PAS Members of Parliament
and hundreds of State Assemblymen :-
1) Not demanding for a Royal Commission of Inquiry into these five police murders of these Indian youths (all in one transaction) as was rightly done for Teoh Beng Hock.
2) Not appointing two Selangor state government funded lawyers for each of the five (5) families as was rightly done for Teoh Beng Hock.
3) Demand the sacking of the IGP and Federal CID Chief for these police murders as was rightly done (for the MACC chiefs) in Teoh Beng Hock’s case.
4) Move and emergency motion in Parliament and the Selangor State Assembly on this police murders of Indian youths as was done for the former mufti of Perlis Dato Asri at the Selangor State Assembly today (Malaysiakini 11/11/2009)
But then for both UMNO and also PKR, DAP and PAS, when and where the victims are “merely the Indians” they won’t bother nor does it matter to them.
Championing of issue by PKR, DAP and PAS must not be majoritarian race based but must be based on the seriousness of the violations of the human rights suffered.
PKR, DAP and PAS not racist parties?
Some of them have distinguished that Teoh’s was a political murder. But then even in the case of ex politician and MIC ADUN Datuk S. Krishnasamy’s murder and Joe Fernandez’s there was pin drop silence by PKR, DAP, and PAS. Not even when the police bully the victim’s (Krishnasamy’s) son and engineer Raj Kumar by confiscating his lap top and handphone for sending e-mails and text messages addressed to Johor CPO Datuk Mohd Mokhtor Mohd Shariff” of the police protecting the suspects involved in Krishnasamy’s murder (NST 11/11/2009 at page 20)
