Yet another detainee died in Police custody. A 23-year old Indian youth died in Police custody at the Taipan Police Station, subang Jaya. He was detained for alleged involvement in a car theft syndicate.
The body was sent to Serdang Hospital for post mortem. The Selangor Chief of Police gave the cause of death as "water in the lung". Some family members barged into the mortuary and taken pictures to uncover the "cover up" of Police.（with cuts and injuries on body and limbs)
The family lodged reports against the Police for the death (murder)of the youth and against the Police Chief for lying.
At the meantime, Police also recorded statement from various people, including two Indian Deputy Ministers, regarding the "illegal" barging into the Hospital mortuary.
Statistics showed that there were a total of 1,535 custodial deaths in the country between 2003 and 2007.
This family is lucky to have his son's body. A detainee (Indian man)at Brickfields Police station was reportedly "jumped" into Klang river under Police detention about two years ago. The body was never found. The mother is pursuing a civil action against the Police for killing their son with help from some human right NGOs.

又一宗嫌犯死在警局扣留所中。一名23岁的印度青年，死在梳邦大班区警察局扣留所里。他是因涉嫌偷车集团案而被警察扣留两个星期协助调查。
他的尸体被送到沙登医院解剖。根据雪兰莪总警长透露，他的死因是“肺有水”（哮喘）。家人不相信，而闯入沙登医院停尸房，并拍摄了许多照片，以证明警方撒谎及企图掩盖事实。(身体及手有许多伤口及伤痕）
死者家人也报案，指控警员谋杀死者及总警长撒谎。
在此同时，警方也向非法闯入停尸房的有关人士录取口供，这包括两名印籍副部长。
根据数据，从2003年至2007年，全国共有1535人，死于扣留期间。
这个家庭还算幸运的能够领回孩子的尸体。大约在两年前，一位印裔扣留犯，在十五碑警局扣留期间，“跳河”死亡，尸体到今天还没被找到。他的母亲目前在一些人权团体的协助下，通过法律途径，控告警方致死他后，意图毁尸灭迹。
23/1/09 晚上7：50 最新讯息： 在公众的舆论下，总检查司干尼把这宗扣留所死亡案，列为谋杀案，并进行调查工作。(看录影Youtube- 小心，有残忍图像)
