GEORGE TOWN: The police have dismissed claims by controversial rapper Namewee that the lock-up he was recently in was in a deplorable condition but a human rights advocate says that most of the detention centres are in a poor state.

Following his four-day detention over his latest controversial music video Oh My God! in the Bayan Baru police lock-up, Namewee wrote on social media about being shocked at the conditions of foreign inmates.
