IPCC belum terima laporan aktivis dipaksa bogel di lokap

The Police Internal Affairs Council (IPCC) has not received any complaints from controversial activist Tamim Dahri Abdul Razak regarding forced nudity and orders to perform sexual acts while in police custody earlier this year, according to Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. The minister stated that as of September 25, the IPCC has not received any complaints about harsh treatment or orders to behave inappropriately in front of fellow detainees while detained in a cell.

However, if any allegations of misconduct involving any police officers arise, the IPCC will investigate according to Section 25 of the Police Internal Affairs Council Act 2022, according to the written response in Parliament. Saifuddin referred to Section 25 of the Police Internal Affairs Council Act 2022, which deals with the interpretation of complaints.

He responded to a question from Che Mohamad Zulkifly Jusoh (PN-Besut) about whether the IPCC is investigating Tamim's complaint. In February, Tamim accused his fellow activists of being stripped like animals and being ordered to perform sexual acts in front of police officers while in custody. The group was detained to assist in investigating a land cleanup at a mosque in Taman Rawang Perdana.

In a written response to Parliament in July, Saifuddin stated that it is not common for the police to strip detainees in cells. He emphasized that all enforcement agencies must adhere to Section 20A of the Criminal Procedure Code when making arrests, and Schedule Four of that act outlines the procedure for arrests, including physical examinations.
