EDICT notes with sadness a news report at 3 pm today that yet another person has died in custody. The latest life to be lost in custody is that of Mugilarasu, 35 years.

2. We are shocked to learn that as of 8 pm today (3 July) the police had not informed the Selangor state coroner of the death of Mugilarasu – despite the fact that last night (2 July), at 11:15 pm, the police informed Mugilarasu’s brother, Karunakaran Pillai – who confirmed the identity of the deceased this morning.

3. EDICT calls upon Selangor police chief, Commissioner Datuk Noor Azam Jamaludin, to explain why the coroner has yet to be informed and whether he considers this a non-compliance with the law.
