Uncle BERSIH claims badly treated by Kotor cops. Polis Raja di Malaysia

Hii: I was kicked, and cop farted in my face, 10 times

In his complaint to human rights commission Suhakam this morning, businessman Hii Tiong Huat complained today that a cop's buttock was shoved at his face and the cop farted on his face 10 times during his arrest on July 22 while another plainclothes policeman also kicked him, 10 times after he told Hii to "go back to China", and said his parents were immigrants from that country.

The Sarawakian was initially arrested on July 8 and held till the next day, for his lone picket with homemade placards at Petaling Street, in the police crackdown in the run-up to the Bersih rally. Hii was arrested again on July 21 and another arrest and detention on July 22-23 by police in relation to his alleged participation in the outlawed Bersih 2.0 rally for clean and fair elections.

Video clips of his arrest have elevated him to the status of folk hero, with members of the public dubbing him 'Uncle Bersih'.
