Investigate A. Kugan’s death without prejudices

I welcome the Inspector-General of Police, Tan Sri Musa Hassan’s assurance that police will carry out a full investigation into the death of A. Kugan who died while he was in police custody. The IGP’s comments that there will be no cover up are important in reassuring the public of transparency in the police investigations. I urged the police to carry out a thorough and fair investigation into what happened, without any prejudices. The quick, transparent and affirmative action by the police in getting to the bottom of what led to A Kugan’s death and to mete out the necessary punishment for the culprits (if any) will reflect the professionalism of the Police force in carrying out their duties without any discrimination or biasness and thus increased the confidence and perception of the people towards the Police.

The question remains, will the IGP and the AG have directed the investigations had Kugan's family not created the "publicity" by storming the hospital morque? The two deputy ministers should not be penalised for being there - at least they show that the BN are with the people!
