The family members of M Krishnan, who was found dead in the lock-up at the Bukit Jalil police station on Jan 7, have urged the attorney-general to agree to a second post-mortem and the speedy release of his body.
Krishnan's widow, P Revathi, 37 (right), believes that Krishnan's death was caused by police brutality while in custody and not caused by stomach ulcers. She hopes and wants a second post-mortem to be done soon.After handing over a memorandum to the National Human Rights Commission (Suhakam) in Kuala Lumpur today seeking the panel's assistance to request the attorney-general to agree to their request, Revathi, who was was accompanied by Kapar MP S Manikavasagam and PKR vice-president N Surendran, said, “I don't understand why when the police now say it's fine to do a second post-mortem, the AG says no.”
