The International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and the World Organization Against Torture (OMCT) in close cooperation with SUARAM (Suara Rakyat Malaysia) has launched an Observatory Report on an international mission of judicial observation in Malaysia on the hearing of habeas corpus application of five leaders of Hindu Rights Action Force (HINDRAF) who are detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA). The hearing of the application took place from 24 to 28 January 2008 and on 26 February 2008 the Court upheld that the detention is in accordance with law.

The launching of the Observatory Report took place at Chinese Assembly Hall today. Miss Laurie Berg, a practising lawyer from Australia, who has been given the mandate to observe and report the entire preliminary hearing of habeas corpus application presented the report to the press and urged the Government of Malaysia to repeal the ISA in its entirety as indefinite detention without trial violates international human rights standards. This recommendation is in line with the universally recognized human rights norms and fundamental freedoms, particularly the right to “participate in peaceful activities against violation of human rights and fundamental freedoms” as enunciated in Article 12 of the Declaration on Human Rights Defenders.

The Observatory also expressed their concern over the fact that the Detainees were not produced at the final hearing as their presence is of importance as to the question of the legality of their detention. The delay in delivering judgment is also one of the matters that concerns the Observatory.

Malaysia, being a member state of the United Nation is urged to comply with the fundamental principles of justice and universally recognized human rights norms enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, particularly on the prohibition of arbitrary arrest, detention or exile. The use of ISA only demonstrates various violations of human rights such as the right to fair and public trial, the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, the right to answer the charges against them and the right not to be arbitrarily detained and the Observatory further stated that the Government has failed to show illegal or dangerous act has taken place as alleged to have threatened national security. The use of ISA also undermines the independence of the judiciary to scrutinize evidence of the alleged illegal or dangerous act.

In her closing remark, Miss Berg reiterates the Observatory Recommendations calling the Government of Malaysia in particular :

1) To repeal the ISA in its entirety.

2) To bring promptly before a judge all persons detained in the country within the framework of ISA.

3) All persons in Malaysia should be tried in conformity with international standards. The right of judicial review should be restored with respect to detention under ISA. Section 8B of the ISA should be repealed as an urgent and immediate step.

4) The five HINDRAF leaders and all detainees should be immediately released.

At the end of the press conference, Miss Berg in the presence of Mr. Saha Deva Arunasalam (representative of Bar Council Human Rights Committee), Mr Bernard Francis (representative of SUARAM) and also Mr. Syed Ibrahim Alhabsyi (the Chairman of Abolish ISA Movement (GMI)) handed over a copy of the Observatory Report to the family of HINDRAF leaders

The ISA 1960: A throwback to the era of tyranny ( from BC)

Settling disputes among individuals and ascertaining the guilt of a member of society who is charged with committing an offence by a tribunal of law has been the hallmark of a civilised and democratic society for some time now.

In feudal times and before, the power to decide on a dispute and to mete out punishment lay absolutely in the hands of one person or with a privileged few. It was a power that was used, often I suspect, without question and arbitrarily.

The majority of legal systems which exist in this day and age are not without flaws but as the essential feature of most of these systems are public trials presided over by persons charged with upholding the rule of law and dispensation of justice, it must, in my view, be accepted that anything else would be a poor substitute.

John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton, otherwise known as Lord Acton, once wrote in a letter to Bishop Mandell Creighton in 1887 that “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

The validity of that statement is beyond reproach and I would think that no right thinking member of society would dare disagree, at least not in broad daylight.

It therefore seems inconceivable to me that even in these ‘enlightened times’, there exists a patch of the past, a throwback, if you will, to the bygone era of tyrannical monarchs where the word of one is sufficient to affix guilt to a human being. Inconceivable it may be but the continued existence of legislation like the Internal Security Act 1960 (I.S.A.) is such a ‘patch’ and an unjust one at that.

The I.S.A. conveys into the hands of one person, the power to detain without trial and also it appears, without question. The existence of such power would perhaps be excusable if that one person had the biblical qualities of Nabi Sulaiman or King Solomon as he is otherwise known, but alas we don’t run into many kings of that nature these days.

Some may reason that preventive detention is a necessary evil, especially in these dark times of terrorism but the upshot is that the liberty of individuals takes a backseat, the years of legal evolution grind to a halt and the trek towards authoritarianism begins anew.

The I.S.A. is a common dirty word [sic] among Malaysians who even consider voicing their dissent against government policies and decisions. It is an abbreviation which strikes fear and stifles the development of a just and equitable society.

Tunku Abdul Rahman, when faced with criticism for the enactment of the I.S.A. said that it will "be used solely against the communists...My Cabinet colleagues and I gave a solemn promise to Parliament and the nation that the immense powers given to the government under the I.S.A would never be used to stifle legitimate opposition and silence lawful dissent.”

Even at its inception, it was recognised that the I.S.A. could be abused and that it is a powerful tool in the hands of the government of the day.

Today, the spectre of the unchallenged use of the I.S.A continues to haunt the citizens of this nation.

The time is long overdue for the abolishment of this draconian and archaic legislation.

It is with that in mind that a motion calling for the abolishment of the I.S.A. has been submitted for consideration at the Kuala Lumpur Bar’s 16th Annual General Meeting on February 21, 2008.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MOTION TO ABOLISH THE INTERNAL SECURITY ACT 1960

RECOGNISING that the detention of persons without trial as provided for by the Internal Security Act 1960, violates principles of the Rule of Law and Human Rights.;

REAFFIRMING the Malaysian Bar’s Motion dated 27 November 1987, calling for the abolishment of the Internal Security Act 1960.

CONDEMNING the recent detention without trial on 13 December 2007 of 4 members of the Malaysian Bar, in particular, 2 members of the Kuala Lumpur Bar, namely Uthayakumar Ponnusamy and Manoharan Malayalam under the Internal Security Act 1960.

IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED

POLICE BAIL DELIBERATELY EXTENDED TILL THE 10th of JUNE

Fri, 30/05/2008 - 16:47 — admin POLICE BAIL DELIBERATELY EXTENDED TILL THE 10th of JUNE

5 of us turned up at the Tanjong Tokong police station this afternoon to only be told that our remand has been extended till the 10th of June 08. Among those present was my self, Mr. Ong, Mr. Vimal, Ms. Lau Shu Shi, Mr Supramaniam and members of the press. It is very disappointing to hear of our remand. It shows how slow the police are in conducting their investigation. How much time more do they need to investigate 7 innocent activist which upholded their constitutional rights by protesting peacefully against the ISA and was later abused by the police. Are they delaying their investigation in order to scare us and slow down our upcoming protest so that we would divert our attention to our own case rather than the ISA. Till today we have not receive any apology from the Home Minister as called by the Penang State government to do so as it was a miss use of power by the Malaysian Police.

Protest in Gurney on ISA

I called upon the Malaysian Police to wrap up their investigation as fast as possible and drop all the charges that they have brought against us. Stop wasting our time, and start to work on many other important issues which effect the Public. Example, the robbery which took place in Komtar a few days ago. Komtar is located only 5min away from both the District Police HQ and State Police HQ. What a shame it is to the Police force for such incidents to happen. Don`t we have any safe place in Penang Anymore ?... and yet they can waste their time disturbing and arresting peaceful protesters as if there is no other cases for them to deal with.

Arrest of 7 is unlawfull
The arrest of the 7 is a challenge to Malaysians and the constitutional law. Can the the Police Act over write the Constitutional Law? Does the Federal Government respects the constitutional law and the rights of it`s Rakyat? If no, than the Federal Government and the Police must be brought to trial for violating the Federal constitutional law and sentenced to jail. The Rakyat is being misleaded by the continuous arrest of many many protesters during their peaceful gatherings. This Violation needs to be put to an end. How much longer does Malaysians need to suffer for standing up and voicing their views. The rakyat`s money is being wasted by the police on the operational cost to disperse the rallies by usage of the tear gas, petrol, chemical water, documents, and video shooting. The police needs to learn from the well develop countries and protect the rights of the citizen and not be a tool of any political party.

NO ISA

It is clear that the people are unhappy with the Internal Security Act. So just abolish it and listen to the cries of the people or be prepared to face many many more peaceful protest by the public. We can`t just sit down and see our brothers suffer in the Kamunting detention center. The detainees are being abused politically, and we would not shut up! Release all the ISA detainees immediately and close down the Kamunting detention camp which symbolize injustice and evilness in Malaysia.

Reply to Krishna T - Re: Hindraf is on winning track

Hi Krishna T,

We are very sorry that u dont seems to understand the actual struggle of Hindraf. If u think u are interest in the day to day life of yourself than u should not be bothered about others activities including Hindraf or even MIC for that sake.

U cant even pick the right word that can be use in public forum and keep repeating the same word. Lucky moderate edits and post your msg which by right should be rejected in the 1st place of repeated abuse/vulgar language.

FYI, Hindraf have told in its 18 demand that MIC mandore system need to be stopped. Malaysia is for Malaysian and all the issue regarding Malaysia need to be looked as Malaysian and stop all the systematic marginalization.

We were all stuck in the same old mandore way of highlighting and expecting MIC to solve the Tamil school, solve the estate compensations, education allocation and many more. By right it should be the task and responsibility of the related Ministry and local authorities.

The Education Minister held responsibility of the tamil schools and it allocation.

Hindraf wants the Malaysian indians to shift paradigm in the way we look into the problem and the way we seek solution.
In this week we saw the Education Minister promises to convert all the tamil schools as fully aided soon, so who held the final responsibility. Was it Uncle Sam or Kerismuddin?

We know the answer, so why are we still barking the wrong tree.

We are glad one of our 18 demands is promised for reality by the Minister himself after 52 years of Impendence.
MIC is just another political party, their survival are for the party struggle.

Regarding ISA, I dont know where u had information that many Indian support ISA. Btw ISA was not after May 13, it was there from 1960s. pls get your facts right.

We wish u good luck in your money generating activities, hope u will have more focus there in order to keep u away from areas that u are not interested in.

Have a good day.

Nandri.

dear waytha,

yeap, atrocities are commited in malaysia and it is by hindraf thru brainwashing the indian community so much many are exibiting uncivil behavior in everyday life. grace, my
friend grace under pressure. we can do better than this. our problem is samyvellu not the govt.
the problem the indian community facing in malaysia is due to the politics of MIC esp under samyvellu.

to understand samy's politics we have to go back to the Konfrontasi period with indonesia between 1964- 1965. smay staged a drama in kuala lumpur by tearing the flag of
indonesia flying at the indonesian embassy and burning it. it captured the imagination of the media and he was declared a hero. and ever since he rose none stop in politics until the voters of sg. siput and dr. devaraj MP taught him the lesson of his life. ( lets hope that MP devaraj and adun nasir will realise that they are being brainf**ked by arutchelvam in parti sosialia malaysia.

the politics of samyvellu is known brainf**king politics.( forgive us for the language- couldnt find a better alternative. You f**k the brains of the people first ( ie play a game on the minds
using any card and any method including the sympathy card) and then you f**k the people (ie fool the people) and gather power and wealth. ethics- what ethics?" i am in power so why do i have to bother about ethics" samyvellu. we were very much perplexed,confused and fooled, for a long long time like many others until we realised we were being brainf**ked by samyvellu's politics.

it is only after that we realised that something must be done. And since it is an indian or rather a tamil problem and mess, we tamils have to take the responsiblity to clean it up. and so we are doing it. we thought we could work with hindraf but the politics of hindraf seems to be similar to samyvellu although both of dont appear together or give opposing views to the media appearing as enemies. as cho ramasamy, a lawyer as well as actor of the tamil movie world would say " we have seen too many tamil movies". nangal nireiya tamil padam parthu
irrukirom. ha ha ha.

come on waytha, this is the 21st century. we shudnt be practising politics that belong to the stone age. it may be a laughing matter in india esp tamilnadu but NOT In MALAYSIA. we have to concerned about the feelings about our fellow malaysians from the malay, chinese, iban, dayak,kadazan etc etc communities as well. riots could break out as happened in the
past.

the I.S.A. act has maintained the peace in malaysia ever since may 13. infact the BN esp umno youth could be making money by making badges saying " saya cintai Akta I.S.A.
or I love ISA act. we will know that the majority of malaysians including the indian/tamil community support I.S.A.act. ( incase , hishamuddin,khairy or anyone else in UMNO youth want to take up the idea of making the badges , you are free to do so, but please remember to pay me my commision for the idea. hey it is intellectual property man!).
certainly, all the detainees must be put on trial. but that the buisness of the govt and the elected reps in parliament. The public is busy with their personal lives.

best wishes waytha.

Draconian ISA, tortured and paralysed its detainee

Hi all Vanakam,

If we could recall, I have told about the story of Sanjev Kumar last
month after getting the real story from inside KEMTA.

There were some from this online forum didn't believe me then and
also challenge me.

For your information, Sanjeev Kumar is a young man who is only 25
years old.

He never had any record of crime before his detention.

Just got married about 6 months prior to his detention.

Was held under police custody for 55 days and none of the family
members knew what happened and where he was.

Later he was brought to Kemta and then only the family knew that he
was held under ISA.

It is so funny as the police finally decided to held him under ISA
as he was charged to be a spy for foreign nation !! But so far no
official charge made against him.

During his 55 days held by police, he was brutally beaten and this
young 25 old guy was unable to walk. His legs and knees were swollen
and cant stand neither walk.

While he was held in Kemta no officer/ prison personnel helped him
for daily movement. He crawled and moved with his wheelchair and his
mobility was bad due to his unheal injuries on his body.

One day suddenly his family was told that he is been hospitalised !!
When they reached there, it was horrified moment for his young wife
and his family looking at Sanjev whom use to be healthy and handsome
guy now lying on bed without moment.

He is now half paralysed !!! His left side and both leg cant be
used....

The camp personnel claimed he fell down and injured caused one side
of the paralysed !!

Do you want us to believe this claim by Kemta personnels.

All this sad story were kept within the family and they were
harassed and warned by SB that Sanjeev would be even worse if they
open their mouth.

Family requested if he could be brought for further check to heal
his paralyse and wounds. It was rejected. The camp even refused to
take the police report made by his wife and denied her request to
get a letter from him about his condition.

He is isolated in Kemta and not many knew about him. The helping
hand were other detainees there whom most of them are Malays whom
helped him to move to toilet and others.

His condition were brought to daylight none other than our great
HINDRAF leader, P. Uthayakumar thru his lawyers. This is good
example that Hindraf leader, P.Uthaya Kumar is still fighting for
justice for Malaysian Indian though he is held under the same camp.

He wants the Malaysians to know the bad things covered all the while
under this draconian ISA.

Sanjeev family were given courage by Uthaya's lawyers and finally
they agreed to come forward to tell the story. GMI also helped them
to seek and engage for a lawyer.

Though many report and complaints made by his family but there is
official statement from the Home Minster about this. ISA is a tool
that been abused by Home Minister and police.

We as Malaysian citizen in general need to voice out boldly against
this draconian law by supporting the activities that call for ISA
Abolishment. Recently even the BN components and Law Ministers is
talking about reviewing ISA.

Do you think if people were quiet and sympathise on ISA would bring
them out?

It was continuous pressure and demo/vigil that made the govt to open
mouth about ISA review.

Sanjeev condition was known thru great soul P. Uthayakumar who
still struggle from inside, just imagine many more people's fate
that were unknown under ISA. So far 10,662 people were held under
this draconian law and it took away many innocent person's life and
their right.

Let us all join together to Abolish ISA in Malaysia.

Let us free Malaysia from ISA.

Sgor DUN approves ISA critics

Dun Selangor lulus usul kritik ISA
Mikini - Saidah Hairan
Tue | May 27, 08 | 1:29:00 pm MYT

SHAH ALAM, 27 Mei (Hrkh) - Kerajaan negeri Selangor di bawah Pakatan Rakyat mencatat sejarah apabila menjadi negeri pertama yang berani meluluskan usul mengkritik Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA) yang dibahaskan dalam sidang Dun ke-12.

Sebelum usul tersebut dibahas dan diluluskan, Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA telah menyerahkan memorandum `Malaysia bebas daripada ISA" melalui Pengerusi, Syed Ibrahim Syed Noh kepada Menteri Besar, Tan Sri Dato' Abdul Khalid Ibrahim, di lobi Avenue, SUK.

Penyerahan memo itu berikutan penahanan Adun Kota Alam Shah, M. Manoharan (DAP) pada 13 Disember 2007 bersama lima rakan yang lain.

Usul tersebut dibawa oleh Adun Kampung Tunku (DAP), Lau Wen Sang yang dibahaskan bermula petang hingga jam 8.55 malam.

Usul bersejarah itu berbunyi: "Bahawa Dewan ini menetap untuk mengkritik penahanan Yang Berhormat Tuan M Manoharan, Adun kawasan Kota Alam Shah serta pemimpin-pemimpin Hindraf (Barisan Bertindak Hak-hak Hindu) dan aktivis-aktivis sosial yang lain tanpa perbicaraan di bawah Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA) dan menyeru Kementerian Dalam Negeri membebaskan tahanan-tahanan ini."

Seramai enam Adun Pakatan Rakyat, termasuk dua bekas tahanan ISA, Saari Sungib (PAS-Hulu Kelang) dan Dr Mohamad Nasir Hashim (DAP-Kota Damansara) menyokong dan membahaskan usul tersebut.

Usul tersebut diluluskan sebulat suara oleh Dun Selangor tepat jam 9 malam.

Malangnya ketika usul itu dibahaskan semua Adun BN tidak berada di Dewan sejak jam 6 petang, Isnin 26 Mei.

Turut serta dalam perbahasan itu Adun Rawang, Gan Pi Nee (KeADILan), Adun Subang, Hannah Yeoh (DAP), Adun Seri Setia, Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad (KeADILan) dan Batu Caves, Amirudin Shari (KeADILan).

Saari Sungib dalam perbahasan menegaskan, apabila seseorang itu ditahan di bawah ISA dan dibawa ke suatu tempat mereka akan terkejut kerana di negara yang sudah merdeka 50 tahun tetapi masih mempunyai tempat yang amat menggerunkan.

Beliau ditahan ISA ketika berumur 41 tahun terkejut kerana berhadapan dengan manusia yang sangat buas dipaksa minum air kencing, dibogelkan, diugut dan sebagainya.

Menurut beliau, ISA merupakan undang-undang untuk mempertahankan kuasa Umno-BN dengan cara menakutkan rakyat supaya tiada siapa yang berani menyuarakan kebenaran.

"Pemerintahan BN lebih zalim daripada rejim zionis kerana tahanan sebelum dimasukkan ke ISA ditahan selama 60 hari tetapi rejim Zionis hanya menahan lapan hari saja," katanya.

Sementara itu, Lau turut menyifatkan akta tersebut sebagai bercanggah dengan prinsip Islam.

"ISA juga bertentangan dengan ajaran agama. Misalannya, ia bercanggahan dengan prinsip-prinsip kebenaran dan keadilan seperti yang diterangkan dalam al-Quran, iaitu ayat 58 surah an-Nisa', ayat 15 surah as-Syura dan ayat 90 surah an-Nahl," kata Lau, yang juga setiausaha DAP negeri.

"Penahanan seseorang tanpa perbicaraan merupakan satu bentuk pencabulan hak asasi manusia yang patut dikutuk dan dikritik sekeras-kerasnya, khususnya dalam kes ini di mana seorang wakil rakyat telah dinafikan hak dan kebebasannya untuk menjalankan tugasnya sebagai seorang wakil rakyat."

Bagi Dr Nasir pula, beliau berbangga dengan keberanian dan ketegasan Menteri Besar kerana sudi menghulurkan bantuan kepada isteri-isteri dan keluarga mangsa ISA.

Menurut beliau, ISA telah memperlekehkan perlembagaan dan perlembagaan itu menjadi sumbing dan songsang.

Katanya, penggunaan ISA itu dikekalkan kerana pemerintah BN selama ini takut dengan bayang-bayang sendiri. - mns

Selangor sedia peruntukkan bantu keluarga mangsa ISA Saidah Hairan | Foto Nasir Sudin
Tue | May 27, 08 | 2:14:13 pm MYT

SHAH ALAM, 27 Mei (Hrkh) - Keprihatinan kerajaan negeri Selangor mengeluarkan peruntukkan membantu isteri-isteri dan keluarga mangsa Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA) membuktikan satu lagi kesungguhan dan kejayaan kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat yang baru tiga bulan memerintah.

Menteri Besar, Tan Sri Dato' Abdul Khalid Ibrahim menyatakan kesungguhan itu selepas menerima memorandum penyerahan lencana `Malaysia bebas daripada ISA' daripada Pengerusi Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA, Syed Ibrahim Syed Noh di lobi Avenue, SUK.

Beliau berkata, kerajaan di bawah tanggung jawab Exco Kebajikan, Hal Ehwal Wanita, Sains, Teknologi dan Inovasi, Rodziah Ismail akan mengeluarkan peruntukkan tersebut secepat mungkin.

Dalam penyerahan memo itu Khalid turut berjanji akan berusaha memansuhkan ISA dan OSA kerana ia merupakan salah satu janji Pakatan Rakyat.

Menurut beliau, kehadiran isteri tahanan dan ahli Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA merupakan kesinambungan usaha kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat mendesak memansuhkan ISA.

"Perjuangan mendesak memansuhkan ISA akan diteruskan bagi menjamin kesejahteraan rakyat," katanya.

Beliau menjelaskan, kerajaan negeri akan membiayai kos perjalanan isteri-isteri dan keluarga untuk melawat tahanan di kem kemunting, Perak.

Selain itu katanya, beberapa usaha akan dilaksanakan seperti memberi biasiswa untuk anak-anak meneruskan pelajaran dan membuat satu perusahan supaya isteri-isteri dan keluarga mangsa dapat bekerja bagi meneruskan kehidupan.

"Saya mempunyai Adun bekas tahanan ISA yang faham dan menghayati kesengsaraan keluarga dan mangsa ISA. Saya yakin mereka akan terus menyokong perjuangan yang paling penting dalam demokrasi sekarang," tegasnya.

Sementara itu, Rodziah ketika ditemui berkata, kerajaan akan memberi bantuan kepada 16 keluarga mangsa ISA yang tinggal di Selangor.

Katanya, bantuan yang diutamakan seperti membayar yuran tertunggak dan perbelanjaan keluarga khusus bagi keluarga yang berada di paras kemiskinan.

Menurut beliau, kerajaan juga akan mengkaji cadangan mewujudkan projek usahawan bagi membantu isteri-isteri tahanan meneruskan kehidupan.

Kandungan memo itu menyatakan enam keluarga mengesahkan suami dan bapa mereka telah dtahan di bawah ISA melebihi enam tahun.

Mereka Mat Sah Mohd Satray suami kepada Norlaila Othman; Abdullah Minyak Silam suami Siti Normah Ismail; Yazid Sufaat suami Chomel Mohamad; Shahrial Sirin suami Fatma Masrum; Suhaimi Mokhtar suami Jurainah Basari dan Shamsuddin Sulaiman suami Fatimah Shamsuddin. - mns
