Set up independent probe into deadly riot, prison break, says Suhakam rep

PETALING JAYA: Set up an independent probe on the deadly riot at an immigration detention centre in Relau, says Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) commissioner Jerald Joseph.

"It is shocking and a tragedy. An independent body made up of representatives other than those from the Home Ministry should be set up to investigate the incident," he said when contacted Wednesday (April 20).
