August 30, 2019, a day of shame for Malaysia — Citizens Against Enforced Disappearances
Last year, to observe the day, Citizens Against Enforced Disappearances hosted a regional conference on enforced disappearances.
We hoped that under him, Malaysia would be the second-last of the 57 Organisation of Islamic Countries to ratify ICERD — presently only Malaysia and Brunei have not ratified ICERD. Saifuddin didn’t even bother to reply to us. Neither did he make any statement about the day. We expect he will remain similarly silent this year.
The Suhakam Inquiry Panel, comprising a retired judge of the Court of Appeal and two law professors , wrote: “The direct and circumstantial evidence... proves, on a balance of probabilities, that [Amri Che Mat and Raymond Koh were] abducted by State agents namely, the Special Branch, Bukit Aman, Kuala Lumpur.”
Worse, the bogus task force appears complicit in a bogus claim included in an appeal released by the police this week. The police even admitted to having approved absurdly large number of leave days for Saiful in 2017 and gave conflicting testimony about what work Saiful did for them!
